Trump assassination conspiracies, Squarespace account hijacks, and the butt stops here

Social media fuels conspiracies galore after Donald Trump is shot at a rally, cryptocurrency websites are hijacked after a screw-up at Squarespace, and our guest takes a close look at bottoms on Instagram.

All this and much much more is discussed in the latest edition of the "Smashing Security" podcast by cybersecurity veterans Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault, joined this week by Zoë Rose.

Warning: This podcast may contain nuts, adult themes, and rude language.
