show moreChristian Johnson joins me this week. After looking back at 14 years of Home Gadget Geeks, we focus on security and privacy concerns, particularly around using SMS and RCS messaging protocols. The FBI and CISA have warned about vulnerabilities in these protocols, leading Jim Christian to advise using more secure messaging apps like Signal, WhatsApp, and Telegram. We also discuss the importance of using secure password management and two-factor authentication practices, highlighting the risks of SMS-based MFA. Christian recommends using tools like Bit Warden and the security features in iCloud+. Christian predicts that the growth and development of AI technologies will be a key trend in 2025, with implications for data center infrastructure and power requirements. Thanks for listening!
