Corrupted Nerds is about how the internet revolution is changing society.
We're completely rewiring the way the human species handles information and knowledge for everyone on the planet. And knowledge is power, right? So really, we're changing power relationships at every level of society. And I do mean every level.
Part of this power shift is about nation-states and war and espionage and criminal hackers, and certainly information security and hacking and the cybers are things we'll cover.
But Corrupted Nerds is also about the relationship between governments and their citizens, businesses and their customers, parents and their children and all the rest.
This is the Conversations feed, bringing you interviews and panel discussions with smart people who can help us understand all this stuff.
There's also the Extras podcast, containing related material that happens not to be a conversation. More podcasts streams may emerge in the future.

Conversations 14: Joe Franzi, Australian Signals Directorate
Joe Franzi, Assistant Secretary for Cyber Security with the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), gives his first on-record media interview in his five years in that role.
It's not often that we get to hear from people like Joe Franzi. He's been working in Australia's defence and intelligence community for more than 37 years. Most recently, that's been with the ASD, formerly the Defence Signals Directorate (DSD), Australia's equivalent to, and partner with, the US National Security Agency.
The ASD isn't just cyber spies. Like the NSA, it's also responsible for defending government, military and other critical communications networks. That's where Franzi currently fits in, and for the last year his team has been the defence-sector contribution to the Australia Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), opened a year ago.
A spoiler: there's no grand secrets in this interview. Maybe next time. But what you will hear is some intelligent comments about risk management -- including a view on whether Australia's new prime minster Malcolm Turnbull should really be using commercial email services -- and about the cultural issues that come up when you put together a cyber defence team from disparate organisations.
This interview was recorded on Thursday 15 October 2015 in Melburne, Australia.
