Episode Synopsis

Hear a discussion based on the week's most interesting UK technology news, and other irreverent takes on tech issues deemed important for British ears to hear.Teenagers sending consensual, sexually explicit messages are unfairly being labelled sex offenders because of UK laws, say censorship activists, according to a WIRED featured written by Liat Clark.

Clark joins the show this week to discuss the implications.Andrew Hoyle, senior editor at CNET.com, also joins the programme to discuss some of the week's technology news curiosities including the return of Nokia classic game Snake, a new technology to help nervous fliers, and a petition to curb after-hours corporate email addiction.Subscribe FREE to the show now Hosted on Acast.
