#7 Hackers and coronavirus

  • Post category:Podcasts

The seventh episode of „Efekt Sieci” podcast looks at the activities of a hacker collective and the network aspects of a pandemic.

The expert in the interview with Dr. Justyna Pokojska is Dr. Eng. Marcin Zaród. The conversation covered issues such as:
– comparison of the speed of spread of a pandemic in „real life” and on the „web”,
– the reasons why the effects of the pandemic began to be felt by people using the network even before the virus reached individual countries,
– the response of hackers to a pandemic – acting for a good cause or looking through the lens of self-interest,
– the image of Polish hackers and its clash with the stereotype of the IT specialist in a sweatshirt and a trench coat.
