Episode 197: Prepare for the End of 3G Networks

Intego Mac Podcast

Apple has released security updates for all its operating systems. We discuss the new disclosures about Pegasus spyware, and Apple's response. And we look at what will happen when mobile phone carriers shut down their 3G networks; you may have 3G devices that you don't think about. And Josh has a new laptop; finally.

(When we recorded the podcast, only some had been released, but shortly after the recording, Apple released the remaining updates.)
