How's this weeks video for a view?! It's a stunning location here in Bali and it's just been the absolute most perfect spot for a honeymoon, especially after weeks of guests and celebrations. But whoever hacked and ransom'd Optus didn't care about me taking time out and I've done more media in the last week than I have in a long time. I don't mind, it's a fascinating story the way this has unfolded and that's where most of the time in this week's video has gone, I hope you enjoy my analysis of what has become a pretty crazy story back home in Australia.

3. When people are wondering if they need to change their name and date of birth in the wake of a data breach, you know there's bigger problems to be solved (seriously, depending on numbers as some sort of secret source sufficient to form a significant part of an identity theft attack is madness and needs to die in a fire)
