  • We're increasingly dependent on technology. Our business and personal lives rely on it, but as you've probably noticed, it's unreliable.They promise it'll get better, but it usually gets worse. Our computers are slow, so we end up squinting at smartphones. We live in constant fear that something's going to happen to our personal data. So we're scared into paying for fake protection that proves useless when disaster strikes.

    The jokers we pay to fix our stuff have no clue what they're doing, so they wipe out our precious photos and tell us to buy a new machine.If we only had someone to explain it all in Plain English, so we can start protecting ourselves. If only, we had... The Computer Exorcist Podcast, with your host, Marc-Anthony Arena!

    This show is for intelligent people who are intimidated by technology, and think it's somehow their fault. Once people learn what the industry is doing to them, they're ready to get torches and pitchforks.

    We expose Update Attacks, Fake WiFi, Cloud Control, and many more industry scandals that are designed to keep the gravy train flowing.

    Oh yeah, and we also do a little bit of scambaiting! We answer calls from phone scammers and torment them until they pop.

    Today Economist Nevin Hira returns to the show, and gives us great insight into:

    • the Indian Caste System - what is it and how it is configured
    • India's ultra-competitive IIT tech schools, and how many people vie for admission to them
    • How Silicon Valley has a microcosm of India, and how they bring the caste system with them
    • The only true way to stop hunger in our world (it involves dumplings and potstickers)

  • 93 How to ACTUALLY STOP robocalls

    93 How to ACTUALLY STOP robocalls
    2025/02/05

    Huge announcement - we've surpassed 6,000 downloads!

    Today we delve into the SHAKEN/STIR scandal - YET ANOTHER example of how my industry tries to solve a problem by slathering ultracomplexity and centralized control all over it. Spoiler alert: It doesn't work, it burdens the good guys with more "diiiigital certificates" and, in case you haven't noticed, the bad guys just laughed and kept robocalling us!

    Aside from that massive debacle, there are a few very lame call blockers out there that play Whac-A-Mole with the scammers, who laugh and change their numbers every day anyway.

    Instead of all that, how about an ACTUAL solution that actually puts a stop to the stupidity once and for all? I've invented it and it's coming soon...
