Following the recent terrorist attacks in London, U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May has argued that the internet provides terrorism with “the safe space it needs to breed.” Elad Yoran, executive chairman of the communications company KoolSpan, joined us to share why he disagrees with May, and whether law enforcement and the tech community can find middle ground on the issue. Afterwards, we’ll look at key highlights from Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference.   

Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference kicks off today, where the company will show off what it’s been working on. But it’s been a while since Apple’s had a huge hit on its hands. Potentially one major reason? The iPhone. Marketplace’s Molly Wood is here to talk about why the popular device could be hindering innovation at the company, and whether the tech giant has anything promising coming out. Afterwards, we’ll look at the possibility of a laptop ban on flights from Europe to the U.S. — which poses a security risk itself for those who have to part with their devices. And finally, we’ll discuss Major League Baseball’s partnership with Intel to live-stream games in virtual reality.

Touting his commitment to the American worker, President Trump officially announced he’s going to pull the U.S. out of the Paris agreement — a global pact to curb greenhouse gas emissions. But a lot of companies out there have created jobs by investing in renewable energy. One of ’em is the startup Totem, which wants to create a hub for solar energy, Wi-Fi, and electric vehicle charging all in one. CEO Brian Lakamp stopped by to give his thoughts on Trump’s decision; how cities are trying to take the issue in their own hands; and why he has confidence in renewables. Plus: We’ll cap off the week by playing Silicon Tally with Dan Ackerman, a senior editor at CNET and author of “The Tetris Effect.”

Yet another malware attack has struck — this time involving Android devices and games downloaded from the Google Play store. The infected apps feature a character called Judy, who could be on more than 36 million phones. We’ll talk about the different types of malware that exist out there, how exactly the creators of malware profit, and how you can protect your own devices. Afterwards, we’ll check out Waze’s plan to launch a California carpooling service that’ll connect commuters with drivers headed in the same direction. And finally, we’ll look at one engineer’s $50,000 experiment on the gaming platform Twitch, which involves letting viewers decide to buy or sell stock using his savings. 

When Instagram launched “Stories” last year — a feature very similar to Snapchat’s main function — the term “copycat” got thrown around quite a lot. But is the criticism fair? What’s the difference between copying and just building on something? On today’s show, we’ll explore the distinction between the two. We’ll also look at Facebook’s plan to add scripted shows to its platform, and then talk about Amazon’s decision to refund $70 million for unauthorized in-app purchases made by kids. 

The 90th Scripps National Spelling Bee kicks off this week, where kids as young as 6 will spell words some us didn’t even know were in the English language — and all without autocorrect. In our daily lives, the rest of us rely on tools like these when we communicate with others. But what effect does this have on our writing capabilities? Michelle Drouin, a professor at Purdue University, stopped by to share research on the issue. Plus: a conversation with Matthew Gough, the founder and CEO of the educational startup Echovate, about what makes Charleston, South Carolina a good location for startups. 

Campaign money used to be spent on things like outdoor posters and television advertisements. Now much of that is going to Facebook. On today’s show, we’ll discuss how big of a role the social media giant is playing in U.K. elections, specifically, and lessons that the country is learning from the Trump campaign. Afterwards, we’ll take a look at the mechanics behind the cloud content management company Box, and then talk about the latest addition to the hotel  industry: robots.

You’ve heard it before: the robots are coming and they’re going to steal our jobs. But, wait a second — the Economic Policy Institute has crunched the data and is now arguing that the effects of automation are a little overstated. One of the authors of the report, Lawrence Mishel, joined us to break down why and what he thinks workers should actually be worrying about. Then to cap off the week, we’ll play Silicon Tally with Rachel Metz, an editor at the MIT Technology Review. 

If you’re an independent video game company, it can be hard to get exposure. Ian Bogost, an interactive gaming professor at Georgia Tech, joins us to talk about issues of access and discovery within the indie game market. Plus: a conversation with The Economist’s Daniel Franklin, author of the new book “Megatech.”
