Today on the show Steven and Shaun begin by talking about Elon Musk’s Neuralink, which reportedly implanted the first brain chip in a human. They debate the implications, expressing skepticism due to past overhyped promises of technological cures for disabilities.
Next, they discuss a UK government proposal that would allow the Home Office to pre-approve tech companies’ security features, potentially affecting global releases and public knowledge. Apple criticized the proposal as an overreach that could compromise user privacy and security.
The show features listener Robin Christopherson who shares his method for accessing YouTube without ads using the Accessible YouTube Downloader Pro for Windows. He also clarifies the British vs. global terminology for black tea.
Your emails today include one criticising Sean for using sound effects in his demonstrations, while another provides information on the RIVO keyboard and recording phone calls. Another listener shares her experience with the Microsoft Disability Answer Desk and her talking watch.
