I think wikileaks sometimes holds stuff till they get money from some journalists.

in Internet taxes, Pro RIAA, anti-encryption? Say hello to Obama’s VP on SecuraBit
I think it's important to remember that while he is first in line to succeed Obama if something were to happen to him, Obama has the veto power, and Biden's views aren't necessarily going to be White House policy by default. He does have the tie-breaking vote in the Senate, however, and that does get used often as history shows.

in DC16 Recap on SecuraBit
Well it really depends on what this podnova site is. There are lots of podcast directory sites (like blog directories, etc) and most of them are garbage. How reputable is PodNova?

Sorry about that. We were using a C-1 I had floating around which pretty much picks up ALL background noise, plus it was in my dining room, not exactly the most soundproof :) It shouldn't be too bad in the next one.

I'm pretty mystified as to why it's broken. When I click the link, it brings up iTunes, and the URL it tries to launch even has the correct ID for the podcast. 100% stumped here.

My apologies, I copied and pasted that while drunk, and didn't bother to check spelling.
Thanks for the catch! I'm usually the grammar nazi.

Anon: I appreciate the feedback. We were a bit drunk for Ep 2. I do want to address the responsibility issue. We do this as a hobby, as a way to have some fun discussion about security topics. I don't want to put false information out there, but we will inevitably make errors as we go along. Hopefully they are minor ones such as in this episode, and on the whole the information is somewhat useful to someone, although the main goal I have with this is entertainment.
Specifically regarding the two-factor authentication discussion though. Using the password "dog" is perfectly acceptable when requiring a hardware key such as the yubikey. Obviously the only downside is if someone steals your yubikey they could brute force your password quite easily, but then again, even if your password is j9jzFKD#@hfa85lhz, it doesn't matter because they have your key, and given enough time and processing power, will eventually crack it before the end of time anyway, so who cares, really? :)
Thanks for listening!
