Description

In this bonus episode, we check in on some of Season One’s stories and see how they’ve evolved. Activist Amanda Werner talks about their turn as the Monopoly Man at the Equifax hearings, and how to create visibility for victims of identity theft. Investigative journalist Marcy Wheeler follows the case of hacker Marcus Hutchins, and tries to make sense of why he was arrested. Troy Hunt argues that IoT devices need warning labels. And, drumroll, we hear back from a troll we sent a cake to last season.

Absolutely agree definitely leave you Vulnerable and be told you don't know what you are talking about and there is nothing they can do.Then your life is put on hold I think it is disgusting so I'm glad that their are some site's are trying to do something and yes so think something should be done about it.I also like the name he called them and they should not wait.Great episode and very scary and hope that they can do something.
