Privacy Special: Is Google misusing our data, and who trusts Facebook? Vertical Hold Episode 178

For Privacy Awareness week, we look at the not-so-private dealings of two of the world's biggest companies, as Google is accused of mis-using the data allowances of Australian users, while Facebook tries desperately to cling to the veneer of privacy amidst rolling scandals. Meanwhile, Telstra's dropped its ZTE phones, but what will this mean for its cheap handsets and future network ambitions?
