The panel starts out by discussing a major deal for Apple TV and what it could mean for their content ambitions. Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Jeff Gamet, Jim Rea, Web Bixby, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Mark Fuccio, and Norbert Frassa debate encryption initiatives, comparing Signal and Messages security, including open source, metadata, and device safety considerations. The session wraps with commentary on the apparent abandonment of about 8K TVs due to cost, lack of content, and limited real-world viewing benefits.  This edition of MacVoices is brought to you by the MacVoices Dispatch, our weekly newsletter that keeps you up-to-date on any and all MacVoices-related information.
