Ever wondered what would happen if Burger King left the keys to the kingdom lying around for anyone to use? Ethical hackers did - and uncovered drive-thru recordings, hard-coded passwords, and even the power to open a Whopper outlet on the moon.

Meanwhile, over in Silicon Valley, one AI wunderkind managed to turn a $7 million payday into a career-ending lawsuit by allegedly walking trade secrets straight out the door as he jumped ship for a rival.

All this and much more is discussed in episode 434 of the award-winning “Smashing Security” podcast with computer security veteran Graham Cluley, joined this week by special guest Lianne Potter. Hear them they chew over catastrophic fast-food security, insider threats with extra fries, and why even the biggest brains in AI can't stop themselves from doing something utterly stupid.
