Episode Synopsis


Steve McAlpine draws our attention to the wider implications of a data hack that's exposed the personal information of 40% of Australia's citizens. The attack on the data vaults of Australian telco Optus seems alarming, but a far greater amount of data is being released daily - willingly - by the digital citizens of the West.It's already being 'hacked' by political parties and corporate giants, and is likely to be sifted to a greater extent in the not-too-distant future.So what should we be doing if we don't want to end up living in a state where our information is used to shape and shift our beliefs?LINKSTo celebrate the launch of the newest podcast in the Undeceptions Network, ‘Delorean Philosophy with Stephen McAlpine’, we are giving away a LEGO Back to the Future Time Machine!
