“Someone is listening in!”

In the current "Club 3" show, the topics of digitalization, the launch of the child protection campaign, but also politics itself are put under the microscope. Guests include State Secretary (ÖVP) Claudia Plakolm, PR and digitalization expert Markus Habermann and "Krone journalist" Niko Frings. The program will be hosted by krone.tv presenter Tanja Pfaffeneder. 

The previous State Secretary for Youth and Civilian Service, Claudia Plakolm (ÖVP), has only recently been assigned another agenda. The politician has taken over the digitalization portfolio from Florian Tursky. "Digitalization is a great opportunity for society and also for Austria as a business location," says Plakolm. But behind the shiny screens lies another side that many of us don't notice or ignore: the bugging phenomenon. Cell phones that listen unobtrusively and then suddenly display advertisements for topics we have just been talking about are unsettling for many. It seems as if our devices are not only passively responding to our commands, but also actively eavesdropping on our private lives to generate personalized advertising. "Someone is listening in, a certain amount of spying through the cell phone is always there," digitalization expert Markus Habermann is certain.

"Club 3" also discussed the child protection campaign and a possible three-party coalition.
