Episode 270 asks, what exactly is the ‘Metaverse’? Did Bruce Willis actually sell his image? And more!

Episode 270 of the Transatlantic Cable kicks off with Apple taking a pot-shot at Meta, with Tim Cooke stating, “I’m really not sure the average person can tell you what the metaverse is,” – fighting talk, indeed. From there, the discussion moves to a confusing story about Bruce Willis and his digital twin – apparently he’s licensed it to a third-party, but things are somewhat more confusing than they first appear.

After that, the team discuss another story. This time, focusing on the Lapsus$ gang and how they’re seemingly able to run circles around enterprise security. To wrap up, the team talk about the recent demise of Google’s Stadia experiment.
