Weekly Update 339

Why can't I audio right? It's my 339th video and I still make mistakes 🙂 But it came good and we got a decent show out of it with lots of interesting engagement even though doing this a lot later in the day than usual. I found the discussion around IoT door locks especially interesting as it's a real nexus of security, usability and a bit of critical thinking about real world risks. That term "security absolutism" that came up in the comments is gold, I hope you enjoy watching this episode.
