Episode 127: Pied Piper

Grumpy Old Bens

The social media fallout continues with Twitter and Facebook being the losers and No Agenda Social, Signal, and others being the winners. We talk about that as well as Twitter’s hypocrisy, why Bernie Sanders is like the Pied Piper, the NSA recommending against 3rd party DNS services, and more!

We hope you enjoy the show, please consider supporting us!
