Data Collection Everywhere
This week in Privacy News, Fisher Price releases a phone that connects to everything…and a new smart ring promises the next level in smart health monitoring. Also, several tech companies are combining together to create a smart home standard and chip manufactures are placing sensors to collect data everywhere for AI applications. We also look at some security news for the week.

This week in Business News, Tesla recalls half a million cars and Blackberry phones are about to die. Also, China is mad at Elon Musk and GDPR results in deleted accounts. Also Microsoft Edge does another thing to irritate users. We end the show in SillyVille.
