  • How to Get 11,196 Years in Prison
    May 23 2024
    Listener, you have all spoken and we have listened: more scams on Nonsense! In this episode, the boys talk about generalities around crypto scams and specifics around rug pulls. While there are plenty of scams floated your way on the daily -- from “crypto investment opportunities” to “FREE CRYPTO GIVEAWAYS” -- we have found the class of scams known as ”rug pulls” to be some of the absolute worst. From the Cryptoqueen’s $4 billion walkoff to Thodex’s $2 billion USB key that (supposedly) lives at the bottom Ionian Sea now, these rug pulls are nothing if not brazen. Fortunately, some mild justice has been dolled out so far, but plenty of these criminals have yet to pay the price. But before any of that fun, we’ve got World Turtle Day, China’s tariff matching game, stomach paralysis, canceled homeowner’s policies, stronger encryption, Chromebooks, and Google’s prepayment to the DOJ. It’s a wild ride, jump on!

    (44:50) Jeff’s Recommendation: Long Shot on Netflix


    You might want to reconsider what you ask your personal, virtual assistant to “just do” for you. As the boys discuss in this week’s episode, sometimes your well-meaning Siri can just get it plain wrong - or in cj’s case, plane wrong! We suspect this “Siri poisoning” will continue to be a thing, just like the DNS poisoning of yesteryear, and the more current AI poisoning plaguing training data today.

    But before Jeff gets a chance to revel in cj’s naivety, the boys discuss more FCC fines (yay!), Dorsey leaving Bluesky (meh), and TikTok suing the US to prevent their sale-or-ban future (boo!).

    And ferrous friendly letters, whatever that means!
