On this episode of The New Screen Savers for Saturday, January 20, 2018, with Leo Laporte and Jason Howell: 
  • Edward Snowden has a new app for Android called Haven that turns your phone into a portable security system. Nathan Freitas, Director of the Guardian Project joins us to talk about how they created it and why.
  • Steve Gibson joins us to explain his latest freeware InSpectre and how it looks for Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. 
  • We have two Calls for Help. The first wants to know about the bandwidth needed for cord-cutting and the second on sharing photos on multiple devices. 
  •  Jason Howell and Megan Morrone put the iPhone X and Pixel 2XL in a head-to-head contest to see which can unlock faster under different scenarios!
