Digitally Overwhelmed

For those of you who are listening from Season 1, you will know that Alvaro and I used to do monthly episodes, talking about tech news. I decided to bring Alvaro on for a final episode this year going through the big tech news for 2018 and some 2019 tech predictions.

• Steps you can take now to improve your online security and some tools to help
• Tech companies getting into non-tech spaces
• Some 2019 tech predictions, including how technology is going to start experimenting with human qualities
