3D printed blood vessels, dumping data from phone towers, solar energy in Australia

Technology

In today’s episode Raena, Mark and Michael discussed the latest in tech including 3D printing blood vessels, and military equipment.  A New Zealand ISP has commenced offering a cloaking service – where customers can avoid geo-blocks on popular U.S. services like Hulu and Netflix.

Russia’s been at it again, this time with laws passing their lower house of Parliament that require all data for Russian citizens to be stored on Russian soil.  Local Australian authorities have been accessing mobile phone tower data without any judicial oversight, and Facebook’s social experimentation is a little bit more prevalent than what we first thought.

Contraception meets technology as well, with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funding research into an implant enabling women to choose when the slow release hormonal treatment is released.  We also discussed how solar energy may actually be the solution to Australia’s power consumption problems.
