DOUG. Crackdowns, zero-days and Tik Tok porn.
All that, and more, on the Naked Security podcast.
[MUSICAL MODEM]
Welcome to the podcast, everybody.
I am Doug Aamoth; he is Paul Ducklin.
Paul, please excuse my voice.
I am sickly, but I feel mentally sharp!
DUCK. Excellent, Doug.
Now, I hope you had a good week off, and I hope you did some great Black Fridaying.
DOUG. I have too many kids to do anything enjoyable… they’re too young.
But we got a couple of things on Black Friday over the internet.

DUCK. I thought you were over Black Friday, ever since you got thwarted for a Nintendo Wii back in the 18th century, Doug?

DUCK. [LAUGHS] The ticket was presumably just to get *into* the queue… then you’d find out whether they actually had any left.
DOUG. Yes, and they didn’t… spoiler!
DUCK. “Sir is only joining the pre-queue.”
DOUG. Yes.
So I didn’t feel like fighting a bunch of people.
All those images you see on the news… that will never be me.

On 28 November 1948, the Polaroid…
