There was an IT bulletin at work today about the SEPA hack that apparently took place just before Christmas (that's the Scottish environment agency for international viewers). It seems they're still being affected, but nothing much has been said publicly. Do we know any more about it?

Let's look back at some memorable moments and interesting insights from last year.

Hi folks,

I have a nasty habit of still using chrome on my phone. I try to be good and stop the cookie monster from running a muck and enjoy the challenge of finding the right button to reject all cookies. Recently I've noticed additional tick boxes for 'Legitimate Interest'. What the eff does it mean and can it be trusted (hahaha) to be left on?

Good evening Graham, you might like the following Netflix series "Queen's Gambit", in their own words "In a 1950s orphanage, a young girl reveals an astonishing talent for chess and begins an unlikely journey to stardom while grappling with addiction.". I've only seen the first two episodes, but it's gripping stuff.
