Lock and Code - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I enjoy the malwarebytes podcast for its timely, focused, topical and easily understandable content. I think I enjoyed the pod about Express VPN the most. I switched from a commercial VPN to a non profit VPN the same day. the host is personable and enthusiastic. I love the interviews with major security players. Keep up the good work.

It’s no Darknet Diaries, but I really like this podcast. Malwarebytes researchers have always done an awesome job in their reports and communications.

I was really intrigued by the questions that David introduced in the recent re-aired episode intro on the interview with Nitya. For context, I’m in my mid-twenties (cusp of gen Z and millennial) so I find the generational difference in online awareness really interesting. Thus, I found the interview with Nitya to be frustrating and boring. Her answers felt quite judgmental of others’ experiences with social media. No context was given on who she is - i understand her parents may want privacy but her answers were presented like a breakthrough understanding about gen Z as a whole, as opposed to acknowledging that she’s just an individual. Ex: “since Nitya is a minor, we won’t be sharing about her personal info, but she first used a computer in year X, and is not a frequent social media user, which our listeners may be surprised by…”. I’m a loyal Malwarebytes customer and really wanted to like this episode. But I guess I’ll have to try again or give up.
