Interview with Rob Reid - a podcast by Steptoe & Johnson LLP

In our 194th episode of The Cyberlaw Podcast, Stewart Baker, Maury Shenk, Jim Lewis, and Rob Reid discuss: the Uber breach; the European Union doubling down on hacking software exports; the Office of the Director of National Intelligence releases "masking" report; Russia threatens to sanction Google if the US requires anything approaching what Russia requires of Yandex; remember those Chinese "security" cameras deployed by US agencies? Yeah, it's worse than we thought. Is there a classified crypto fight with industry under way? Germany’s cyber agency wants authority to hackback. (But, living up to recent stereotype, only for government.) Battle of the bots: “My millions of astroturfed Federal Communications Commission comments count for more than your millions of mail-merged comments from dead people.” This is irresistible. With great quantities of graphene consumption comes great responsibility, and great webs. Our guest interview is with Rob Reid who founded, ran, then eventually sold Listen.com, which created the Rhapsody music service. Rob writes science fiction novels, including his newest book After On and also hosts and produces “The After On Podcast." The views expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not reflect the opinions of the firm.
