Is Google’s Pixel 7a winner, How is the budget fighting cybercrime? Vertical Hold ep 428

Google’s Pixel 7a is here (as is Google I/O), but is the Pixel 7a a worthwhile phone? How is Australia’s Federal budget fighting scammers and cybercrime? Are blue skies already turning grey at BlueSky? Special Guests Stilgherrian, EFTM’s Dan Tyson and review.org’s Adam Smith!

Listen!

Google’s I/O brought us lots of AI, no Pixel Fold down under and… Time Travel?

Well, no, Google didn’t bring us time travel, but in this week’s show, we’re using the power of time travel to tell the story of the Pixel 7a, discuss the Pixel Tablet and more with EFTM’s Dan Tyson and Review.org’s Adam Smith!

It’s also budget week, and the tech side of the budget wanted to talk all about the criminals. No, not the ones we may or may not have elected*, but instead criminals of the cyber kind.

So Stilgherrian dropped by the Vertical Hold studios to talk all things Cyber, as well as why the skies over at BlueSky might not be that blue…

*Allegedly, in case you’re a lawyer reading this.
