Web3 — Technology of Control or Freedom?
April 07, 2022 08:00 - 31 minutes - 28.9 MBThe internet is an ever-evolving thing, with new features and services popping up daily. But these innovations are happening in the current internet space, known as Web 2.0. The potential next big leap is to what is being called Web3 or Web 3.0.

What Happens If We Live Forever?
March 31, 2022 08:00 - 51 minutes - 47.1 MBHumanity has long imagined a future where humans could live for hundreds of years, if not forever. But those ideas have been the stuff of science fiction, up until now. There’s growing interest and investment in the realm of biohacking and de-aging, and leading scientists such as Harvard’s David A. Sinclair are bringing the idea of extended lifespans out of fantasy into a reality we may see within our generation. But a world where more people are living a lot longer than ever thought possibl...
Borders Matter – Even in Cyberspace
March 24, 2022 08:00 - 46 minutes - 42.6 MBA fundamental feature of the internet is its ability to transcend borders, connecting people to one another and all forms of information. The World Wide Web was heralded as a global village that would remove the traditional gatekeepers and allow anyone a platform to be heard. But the reality is that access to the internet and online services is very much bound to geography. A benign example is the location lockouts to online streaming platforms depending on which country you access. But more...
Inside the Russian Information War
March 17, 2022 08:00 - 40 minutes - 37 MBThe speed at which the Russia-Ukraine war has played out across the internet has led to some interesting insights about how different groups have been experiencing and responding to information and misinformation about it. The West found unity across political divides, and the big tech platforms, breaking their long-held stance, have quickly acted to limit the spread of disinformation by making changes to their algorithms. However, across much of the non-English-language internet, the infor...
A History Lesson That Shatters the Mythology of Silicon Valley
March 10, 2022 09:00 - 46 minutes - 42.3 MBIn this episode of Big Tech, host Taylor Owen speaks with Margaret O’Mara, a historian of modern America and author of The Code: Silicon Valley and the Remaking of America. Silicon Valley and the massive wealth it has generated have long symbolized the wonders of free market capitalism, viewed as proof of how innovation can thrive when it is not burdened by government oversight. Silicon Valley is infused with this libertarian ethos, centred on the idea that it was guys in their garages, se...
Johann Hari Knows You Won’t Be Able to Finish This Episode without Checking Your Phone
March 03, 2022 09:00 - 53 minutes - 49.1 MBDo you feel as if you can’t get through a single task without distractions? Perhaps you are watching a movie and stop it to check social media or respond to a message. You aren’t alone; studies show that collectively our attention spans have been shrinking for decades. Many factors contribute to our fractured focus, including the processed foods we eat, which cause energy highs and lows, but the greatest culprit of all is technology. In this episode of Big Tech, host Taylor Owen speaks wit...
Early Women Innovators Offer Tech a Way Forward
February 24, 2022 09:00 - 45 minutes - 41.9 MBIn the history of computers and the internet, a few names likely come to mind: Alan Turing, Tim Berners-Lee, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Undoubtedly, these men’s contributions to computer sciences have shaped much of our modern life. In the case of Jobs and Gates, their financial success shifted the landscape of software development and the metrics of success in Silicon Valley. Some sectors of the industry, such as programming, hypertext and databases, had been dominated by women in the early...

Carr began his blog Rough Type in 2005, at a time when some of today’s biggest companies where still start-ups operating out of college dorms. In 2010, he wrote the Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction finalist The Shallows, in which he discussed how technology was changing the human brain. At the time, many were skeptical about Carr’s argument, but in just over a decade many of his predicti...
Your Facts Aren’t My Facts — Joe Rogan and Our Infodemic Age
February 10, 2022 09:00 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MBPeople are divided: you are either pro-vaccination or against it, and there seems to be no middle ground. Whether around the dinner table or on social media, people are entrenched in their positions. A deep-seated mistrust in science, despite its contributions to the flourishing of human life, is being fuelled by online misinformation. For the first time in history, humanity is in the midst of a pandemic with communication tools of almost unlimited reach and potential benefit, yet social med...
The Entrenched Colonialism of Tech
February 03, 2022 09:00 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBTime and time again, we see the billionaire tech founder or CEO take the stage to present the latest innovation meant to make people’s lives better, revolutionize industries and glorify the power of technology to save the world. While these promises are dressed up in fancy new clothes, in reality, the tech sector is no different than other expansionist enterprises from the past. Their core foundation of growth and expansion is deeply rooted in the European and American colonialization and Ma...
How Europe Is Trying to Rein in Big Tech
January 27, 2022 09:00 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBGovernments around the world are looking at their legal frameworks and how they apply to the digital technologies and platforms that have brought widespread disruptive change to their economies, societies and politics. Most governments are aware that their regulations are inadequate to address the challenges of an industry that crosses borders and pervades all aspects of daily life. Three regulatory approaches are emerging: the restrictive regime of the Chinese state; the lax, free-market ap...
The Brain Is Not a Computer
January 20, 2022 09:00 - 57 minutes - 52.5 MBMany unlocked mysteries remain about the workings of the human brain. Neuroscientists are making discoveries that are helping us to better understand the brain and correct preconceived notions about how it works. With the dawn of the information age, the brain’s processing was often compared to that of a computer. But the problem with this analogy is that it suggested the human brain was hard-wired, able to work in one particular way only, much as if it were a computer chip, and which, if da...
What Does Real Democracy Look Like?
January 13, 2022 09:00 - 44 minutes - 40.8 MBDemocracy is in decline globally. It’s one year since the Capitol Hill insurrection, and many worry that the United States’ democratic system is continuing to crumble. Freedom House, an America think tank, says that nearly three-quarters of the world’s population lives in a country that experienced democratic deterioration last year. The rise of illiberalism is one reason for this, but another may be that democratic governments simply haven’t been performing all that well in recent years. ...

Best of: Bishop Steven Croft on Keeping Humanity at the Centre of New Technology
December 23, 2021 09:00 - 39 minutes - 36.3 MBIn the early days of the internet, information technology could be viewed as morally neutral. It was simply a means of passing data from one point to another. But, as communications technology has advanced by using algorithms, tracking and identifiers to shape the flow of information, we are being presented with moral and ethical questions about how the internet is being used and even reshaping what it means to be human. In this episode of Big Tech, Taylor Owen speaks with the Right Reveren...
Cutting through Online Hate to Have Meaningful Discussions on Climate Change
December 16, 2021 09:00 - 42 minutes - 38.7 MBSocial media has become an essential tool for sharing information and reaching audiences. In the political realm, it provides access to constituents in a way that going door to door can’t. It also provides a platform for direct access to citizens without paying for advertising or relying on news articles.

Carissa Véliz on Why We Need to Take Back Control of Our Data
December 09, 2021 09:00 - 33 minutes - 31.1 MBHumans need privacy — the United Nations long ago declared it an inalienable and universal human right. Yet technology is making privacy increasingly difficult to preserve, as we spend fewer and fewer moments of time disconnected from our computers, smartphones and wearable tech. Edward Snowden’s revelations about the scope of surveillance by the National Security Agency and journalists’ investigations into Cambridge Analytica showed us how the tech products and platforms we use daily make i...
How Peter Thiel’s Contrarianism Shaped Silicon Valley — and America
December 02, 2021 09:00 - 42 minutes - 39.3 MBTech billionaire Peter Thiel is an enigmatic, controversial and hugely influential power broker in both Silicon Valley and the political arena. He is often seen as a libertarian, who at one point was exploring the idea of building floating stateless cities in international waters. But at the same time Thiel is very much an insider. He is actively involved in American politics, through funding political candidates, and in tech, through co-founding PayPal and Palantir, as well as supporting ot...
C. Brandon Ogbunu on Afrofuturism as a Tech Framework
November 25, 2021 09:00 - 41 minutes - 37.8 MBScience fiction has long been a medium for bringing light to societal issues, including religion, culture and race. It helps us imagine futures of hope and prosperity or warns of dystopian nightmares. And our experience of race plays a central role in our understanding of science fiction. “There’s this amazing quote from Junot Díaz, the Pulitizer Prize-winning writer, where he basically says that if it wasn’t for race, X-Men doesn’t make sense. If it wasn’t for the history of breeding human ...

Jameel Jaffer on Free Speech in the Digital Era
August 05, 2021 08:00 - 41 minutes - 38.1 MBLiberal democracies around the world have protections for free speech, such as the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or, more famously, the US First Amendment. Many of the free speech activities that are protected by law, such as the right to organize and protest, have moved onto social media platforms. But, as we have seen, the power of social media to amplify content can have disastrous impacts. Nations looking to reform and enact online protection regulations to address issues of ...

In their conversation, Taylor and Geoffrey discuss how these technolog...
Hong Shen on How Tech Really Works behind the Great Firewall
July 08, 2021 08:00 - 31 minutes - 28.7 MBWestern democracies and tech companies have long painted the Chinese tech sector as not only a threat to the US sector but also as operating in direct conflict with American companies. They say that China is walled off from the rest of the world, that these tech companies are just an extension of the state, and that they create and promote state surveillance and censorship tools. While China, the country, isn’t completely innocent — there are clear examples of state interventions and human r...
Victor Pickard on the Future of Journalism
June 24, 2021 08:00 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MBThe journalism industry in America has grown and adapted over its 300-year history. Different business models and ownership schemes have been tried, mostly in an attempt to establish an independent free press. Social media platforms have contributed to both the decline in revenue for news outlets and the echo-chamber effect that results when users are only consuming news that fits their political viewpoint. In this episode of Big Tech, Taylor Owen speaks with Victor Pickard, a professor of...
Pranav Dixit on Modi’s Moves to Manipulate Platforms
June 10, 2021 08:00 - 32 minutes - 29.9 MBTech platforms from around the world have turned their attention to the India as a new area for user growth.

Ethan Zuckerman on Why Institutional Failure Can Spur Positive Change
April 29, 2021 08:00 - 46 minutes - 42.3 MBAmericans’ trust in democratic institutions has been strained over the past few years. The stress fractures are expressed in everything from cries of “fake news” against the media, to outrage over violent and racist police actions, to suspicion about COVID-19 precautions and vaccines, to the siege on the US Capitol Building in the aftermath of the presidential election. When trust in institutions falls, the populace can be stirred into action. Depending on the issue and the group, this actio...

Joan Donovan on How Platforms Enabled the Capitol Hill Riot
January 21, 2021 09:00 - 48 minutes - 44 MBDuring his term, President Donald Trump has vilified the media, spread mis- and disinformation and built a loyal base of followers who believe his message.

In this episode of Big Tech, Taylor Owen speaks with Joan Donovan, research directo...

Heidi J. Larson on the Root Causes of Vaccine Hesitancy
December 10, 2020 09:00 - 35 minutes - 32.1 MBVaccine hesitancy and anti-vax sentiment have been around for as long as vaccines themselves have been available. Misinformation about vaccines has, for example, led to a decline in early childhood vaccination, resulting in the worldwide resurgence of the measles virus. In 2020, a vaccine appears to be the only viable path to ending the COVID-19 pandemic and returning to normal. But many distrust this new vaccine (or vaccines) and could refuse to get vaccinated. In this episode of Big Tech,...

Damian Collins on Joining Forces to Regulate Big Tech
July 30, 2020 08:00 - 26 minutes - 24.1 MBOnline advertisement and social media platforms have had a major impact on economies and societies around the globe.

The big tech companies at the centre of these shifts have little incentive to change the nature of ...
Emily Bell on Journalism in the Age of Social Media
July 16, 2020 08:00 - 34 minutes - 31.3 MBJournalism has had a storied history with the internet. Early on, the internet was a niche market, something for traditional publishers to experiment with as another medium for sharing news.

Newspapers had historically generated revenue through a mix of subscriptions, advertising and classifieds. But internet platforms Craigslist and Kijiji soon took over classified...
