Episode Synopsis
Author and activist Cory Doctorow joins us to discuss The Internet Con, his call to reclaim internet control from Big Tech. From locked-down platforms to the illusion of choice online, Cory lays out how interoperability can break corporate monopolies—and why reshaping the digital landscape starts with empowering users to leave, remix, and reimagine the internet on their own terms.Grab your copy of The Internet Con: https://www.versobooks.com/products/3035-the-internet-con This conversation was recorded on 10/31/2023.
