    yes agreed. I too bought a PDF but have no idea how to contact them. I suspect either government crack down or hackers. I hope people have saved previous podcasts and upload to archive org or somewhere where USA gov can’t touch it. 🤷

      At first, I was thinking the removal of 306 could just been on the advice of his lawyer. But I see the only thing available are the show notes. I don’t see any podcasts on his site.

        Yeah, I think he’s said in the past how he clears everything with his lawyer before even releasing the podcast

          After posting about the lawyer I noticed all episodes have been removed. I’ve checked over a dozen podcast sites. If there is anything it’s just the show notes and the intermission.

          My total-joke hypothesis is Michael removed the podcasts as a way of reminding us to keep good backups. Keep a copy of everything you may want.

            Even if not, it was a good lesson all the same. I forgot to back up 304 so I’ve learned my lesson and now am going to have to try and track it down.

              304 is a pre-recorded episode about Extreme Privacy Linux Devices pdf. OSINT news involves a few changes to the online tools.

              I can’t see the podcast being gone forever.
