Summary

My guest this week is Toby Shapshak the publisher and editor-in-chief of of Stuff magazine in South Africa. He is a journalist in his own right, a commentator on the digital economy and a proper tech geek. Toby and I met many years ago on an ill-fated visit to the launch of the Gautrain back in 2010 and have bumped into each other intermittently since then. We got into quite lengthy discussion about internet privacy and how to survive in this age of surveillance capitalism. Toby had some great tips on how to protect your privacy and data online. He also on lighter note gave us some of his highlights from the recent Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona recently. He chatted about some of his favourite gadgets and the latest developments in 5G technology. Visit Stuff online [here](https://stuff.co.za/). The Toby Shapshak Show is available wherever you get your podcasts.
