A Moment of Silence before the IT Privacy and Security Weekly update for May 25th., 2021 - a podcast by RPS

On the first anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, we’d like to take a moment to pause and reflect. Changing social bias is an evolution, just as realizing and changing our own. But with continued effort, we can make a difference. Just as ignorance promotes prejudice, we can all learn to be kinder, gentler, and more accepting of the differences of those around us.

This week we start IT Privacy and Security with the sound off, a revelation about a new type of malware that actually checks a directory to look up its victims before attacking them, and then a type of manipulation we are sure you’ve experienced but probably never realized was so rampant.

We follow with a story about poor judgment and bad publicity and the heroic efforts of so many as they work to help others. There is news on privacy and security changes in Android 12, and yet another update for macOS.

We end on a lighter note with the story about the significance of composition in photography, stressing the importance of keeping your fingerprints away from the final product.

On this solemn day let’s learn something new. Together.
