27	JH	This episode of All About Android is brought to you by DeleteMe. Have you ever searched for your name online and didn’t like how much of your personal information was available? Did it make you feel exposed or unsafe? Since 2010, DeleteMe has been on a mission to empower individuals and organizations by allowing them to reclaim their privacy and help them remove personal data from online sources. Their team is driven by a passion for privacy and a commitment to making it simple for customers to use. DeleteMe helps reduce risk from identity theft, credit card fraud, robocalls, spam, cybersecurity threats, harassment, and unwanted communications overall. DeleteMe is the most trusted privacy solution available, helping thousands of customers remove their personal information online: Did you know the average person has more than 2,000 pieces of data about them online that DeleteMe can find and remove? Think about how much time that saves you! DeleteMe has removed more than 50 million pieces of data for their customers. One customer said, “I signed up and they took it from there! Awesome service! Already seeing results!” [Host: Provide PE (if applicable). Compromised info, hacking, identity theft, spam/robocalls? How many sites did they remove data from/how much exposed Personal Identifiable Information did they find?] Here’s how it works: First, sign up and submit some basic personal information for removal from search engines by going to joindeleteme.com/twit. DeleteMe experts will find and remove your personal information from more than 580 Data Brokers, helping reduce your online footprint and keeping you and your family safe. Once the removal process starts, you will receive a detailed DeleteMe report within 7 days. And it doesn't stop there! DeleteMe will continue to scan and remove your personal information every 3 months. And with automated removal opt-out monitoring, they will ensure records don’t get repopulated after being removed. This includes names, addresses, photos, emails, relatives, phone numbers, social media, property value, and more! As the data broker industry expands, contracts, and morphs, they continue to add new sites and features to ensure their service is both simple to use and effective in removing personally identifiable information.

56	RR	First off. Can you get Ron to say "Holy Cow, app drawer." :) Anyway, your discussion on android tablets is interesting. My first tablet was the Nexus 10 that I got for free by winning a contest. I used it mostly in a case to watch twit podcasts. When it died I considered buying an ipad, but they were so expensive and didn't do everything I wanted to do. So I eventually got a Surface Pro. Best of both worlds. At the time not every video streaming service had apps so it was simple to just go to the web page in the browser. Prior to that I had an HP touchpad for years with Android on it. Best $50 tablet ever. Look forward to hearing how the one plus tablet and pixel tablet are. Long time fan from the Eileen Rivera days. Keep it up. Thanks, Hilton Young from Virginia

59	HTD	Hey team. Hope Google IO went, is going, or will go well for yall! In episode 638, there was a question about screen casting from phone to tablet for use in a car. I wonder why using the phone as a mobile hotspot was not given as a possible solution/option. The phone handles the data connection while the tablet runs the apps natively. I don't know many apps that work on a phone but won't on a tablet. Also, did we know that Huyen is jacked? Tickets anyone? She should have a segment to get us techies into shape! Looking forward to some heavy Google IO news. Laters! -Tommy from GA
