That spyware thing that triggered Apple’s security update today? theguardian.com/technology/202… I’ll be talking about it on @abcadelaide shortly at 1650 ACST / 1720 AEST at abc.net.au/radio/adelaide… or on the ABC Listen app.
@abcadelaide I’ve been pushed back half an hour because the current conversation about gambling adverts on TV and social media, and its effect on kids. It’ll now be at 1720 ACST / 1750 AEST. Unless a better story pops up, because this is live radio.
@abcadelaide I am cool with this. I used to produce this sort of live radio and I know how the game in played. :)
@abcadelaide Coming up after this segment.
Well, the one after.
On hold and ready to go...
And we’re done! Fool me wasn’t watching the clock and waffled too long lol.

Ping if you remember one of the best submarines ever, because it could fly. Image
Mind you, there was also the Reid Flying Submarine RFS-1. Image
And the Convair Submersible Seaplane, though that was only a design concept. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convair_S… Image

Gaurab Raj Upadhaya is saying that in the last 18 months, i.e. the pandemic times, APNIC has seen more internet traffic than ever before. As you might imagine. I hope we get to see some graphs later. #APNIC52
The keynote by Kathleen Moriarty, CTO for the Center for Internet Security, is a curious topic. “Role of Service Providers in Transforming Security”. Curious ’cos as service providers try to make the whole thing encrypted all the way down, governments don’t want that. #APNIC52 Image

Starting shortly at 1200 AEST, the ASPI event “The road from 9/11: The evolution of counterterrorism and extremism”.

I’m interested to hear what Karen Andrews has to say, though I suspect it’ll just be boilerplate. The Morrison government isn’t notable for its intellectual heft.
What is it with institutional event MCs that they have to read everyone’s entire CV when introducing them? Karen Andrews can simply be introduced as Minister for Home Affairs. Anyway here she is. Image
The first part of Andrews’ speech is just 9/11 boilerplate. Terrorism is bad, first responders brave, roll call of terrorist attacks, etc. We’re in pandemic lockdown now, but after the pandemic we’ll gather in large groups again and the spectre of terrorism will return.

I know it’s 1pm but before I do anything else I need to tell you about the dream I had, before it fades from memory.
I dreamed I had a friend who was a duck, just an ordinary-looking Pacific Black Duck, whose hobby was recreating scenes from famous movies.
For example, he recreated Jennifer Beals’ performance from “Flashdance” using a series of water-filled enamelled trays lined up on the lawn, and he’d splash from one to the next in his joyful dance. Image
