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 9: Amateur satellite intel with David Jorm
It'd be fair to say that most of us in western countries like Australia have a cartoon view of North Korea -- over the top patriotic songs or clichéd images of military parades and speeches. But a growing group of amateur North Korea watchers is changing that.
David Vorm is one of them. His day job is as a security response engineer for a well-known Linux vendor associated with headwear. But he also studies geography and mathematics at the University of Queensland, and he's started using open or commercially available satellite imagery and other data to analyse what's going on on North Korea.
This interview was recorded on 27 October 2013 in Melbourne, Australia.
