Microsoft wows its critics with new Windows 10 devices - is it now the cool kid on the block? Facebook details plans to give 14 African countries satellite internet. We ask Michel de Rosen of Eutelsat, Facebook's partner, whether the tech is up to the job. Europe's highest court says a transatlantic agreement on transferring European internet users' data to America is invalid. Plus, Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan, authors of a new book "The Red Web" tell us how the Russian state sees the Net as both threat and opportunity. Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, with special guest Dr Orla Lynskey, from the London School of Economics. (Picture: Microsoft demo of Hololens glasses, Credit: Getty Images).
