WhatsApp privacy concerns continue

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

We look at the continued fall-out from the Whatsapp privacy and alleged spying revelations. Further implications of the row of the alleged attack on Saudi oil tankers has intensified today – we get the latest. Disney’s takeover of Comcast and Hulu arm of that too has a serious power play in its midst. Plus we look at dynamic pricing techniques in retail: live pricing changes customers get on airline bookings pages, or hotel sites, after English football fans trying to head out to Madrid have been facing ticket prices up to $2,000 above the usual price. Plus, we look at the unsung heroes of the global workplaces. All this is discussed with guests Catherine Yeung from Fidelity and Rhonda Sharpe from Wiser Policy.
