We met up with Wendell of Level1 Techs to talk about Peak Microslop. Specifically, account security vulnerabilities, handing over Bitlocker keys to the feds, and ransomware attacks using Windows account requirements to lock everything down remotely. We also talk about ID verification laws and the impact on user privacy.
We're restocking our Microslop T-shirts. More on the way in a few weeks. We still have some sizes in stock here: store.gamersnexus.net/products/microslop-parody-t-shirt

Links to Amazon and Newegg are typically monetized on our channel (affiliate links) and may return a commission of sales to us from the retailer. This is unrelated to the product manufacturer.

We do not ever produce paid content or "sponsored content" (meaning that the content is our idea and is not funded externally aside from whatever ad placement is in the beginning) and we do not ever charge manufacturers for coverage.
