This week, we’re talking about Robots — how they’re categorised, who’s producing them, and how they’re changing today’s world.
On the way, we discuss the news from the fortnight that was, including the Pirate Bay’s $1m BTC donation haul, Australia’s cannabis legalisation, Bill Gates’ carbon capture investment, and Boston Dynamics’ sales of the Spot robot.
in our “Cool Tool” segment, hear about Swap.Online, an exciting Atomic Swap exchange, as well as Yahoo’s Crypto Screener. In our Privacy & Security section, we discuss the Brave Browser, a fantastic tracker-blocking browser for desktop and mobile.
