090 - On Apple and Encryption Backdoors

Hey Zengineers!

We’re back with a quick one to hit a timely topic (again!) Encryption backdoors are back in the news, so were hitting it again. If you want to know what’s going on with the latest fight between Apple and the government, and all the grumbling the Attorney General and the President have been doing about encryption, we’ve got you covered.

As always, there are some links to follow in the notes if you want to dig in any deeper.

Thanks for listening!
