Why your kids are tech addicts, Business cyberinsurance skyrockets, Get rid of Flash on all your devices and more — Komando On Demand — Overcast

This week I talk about the ramifications of skyrocketing cyberinsurance premiums, could your kids’ tech addictions be a product of our doing?, find out what got Kanye West ranting about in-app purchases, why you should get rid of Flash on all your devices, and discover that hackers immediately put your stolen data on sale for as little as $5. Listen to my FREE podcast.

This is a free tech podcast that I just found.  It isn’t “tech-y”, but in easy to understand terms.

I especially liked the segment about removing Adobe Flash.  I’ve removed it from my system about 6 months ago.  If I go to a web page that says it needs Flash, I just open the page in Google Chrome, which is much more secure.

Here is a link from Adobe on how to uninstall it from Windows.

Here is a link from Adobe on how to uninstall it from Mac OS X.

If you aren’t using Google Chrome, give it a try.  They have versions for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS.  You can download it here.

Since I am a developer, I like to have several browsers on my system.  On Mac OS I primarily use Safari and on Windows I use Internet Explorer.
