Eskom Woes Continue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Eskom has been teetering on the edge of crisis for years and with the return of scheduled load-shedding, South Africans are fed-up. Without countless recovery plans and billions of rands poured into the power utility to keep it afloat, could the president\u2019s new plan to unbundle Eskom provide the right solutions?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brexit: What It Means for South Africa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The end of March deadline for Britain\u2019s withdrawal from the European Union is fast approaching and the interminable and bruising internal debates will give way to real-world impact. About 5% of South African exports go to the United Kingdom and it\u2019s also a major tourist destination so what ramifications will the looming Brexit bring? We analyse how a more insular, weaker Britain might spell hard times for Britain\u2019s trading partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

e-Hailing Cab Service Safety<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve ever been left stranded without transport after a late night out or you\u2019ve had to rush to the airport in the early hours of the morning, then you\u2019ll understand why e-hailing cab services have become so popular. They\u2019re fast, convenient and right at your finger-tips. But what happens when a driver turns on the passenger? Kidnapping, assault and rape \u2013 these are some of the horror stories from users of the e-hailing cab service which have emerged at the Gauteng High Court. Carte Blanche asks: just how safe are its users?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brainternet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The future of human integrated technology is here as local Wits University engineers find a way to use the human brain to not only communicate with the internet (brainternet), but also transmit words through the brain (brain connect). But how safe is this new invention? Carte Blanche explores the ethical dilemmas of human brains hooking up to the internet, in the not too distant future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
