    Episode Notes

    Welcome to episode 15. This week I'm discussing USB connections and which devices use the various connector types. Age verification has come to iOS here in the UK, and the UK Government are having a consultation about a new digital ID which makes it easier to prove your identity and apply for and manage Government services that you use. Get your views heard by clicking the link to the consultation. Enjoy and as always thanks for listening.
