Protecting Data in the USA

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

We get the latest live with our reporter in Abuja as another bomb blast in Nigeria's capital, as the search goes on for the schoolgirls abducted in the north of the country. President Obama calls for new rules to protect the security of Americans' data - but will it make a difference to consumers? We ask the chair of the board of the Electronic Privacy Informational Centre in the US. Also, the company that makes spacesuits for NASA describes how public opinion has influenced its latest design. And we'll hear about the efforts of Eduardo Avila, Director of Rising Voices, in Bolivia to encourage indigenous people to get involved in the digital world.
