Privacy Concerns in Car Brands

Do you know what data your car is collecting about you? Do you think it's right for a car manufacturer to collect a subscription to keep your bottom warm? And just why has YouPorn sent an email to Graham about his sex video?

All this and much much more is discussed in the latest edition of the "Smashing Security" podcast by cybersecurity veterans Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault, joined this week by Host Unknown's Andrew Agnês.

Plus don't miss our featured interview with Gigamon's Mark Jow.
