This week, MobileSyrup news and telecom reporter Sameer Chhabra speakers with MobileSyrup features editor Igor Bonifacic about Federico D’Alessandro’s Tau.

Later in the episode, Lex Gill, a research fellow at the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab, speaks about digital profiling and the ways in which our digital footprints are being used to target us.
