Welcome to the first episode of our three part series on Understanding Personal Identity. This is a special one for us since we are talking about a topic that everyone has thought about at some point but more often than not we are left with more questions that we initially started with. Figuring out one's identity is a life long process and it's an ever evolving process. We tried to cover some really important aspects of it in this series. Prof. Theo Klimstra who is an expert in the field of personal identity joined us and helped us dive deep into various aspects of identity.

In this short episode, we are discussing the economic cost of war. Starting from the GDP of a country and the amount of tax that goes into military funding to how much individual war equipment costs, to give you a very concrete idea of why wars are so expensive. We are talking about this in the context of the current invasion of Ukraine by Russia but the calculations we mentioned in the episode can be easily expanded to other such wars.

In the fourth episode of the second season of IUTR, we are talking about how do beliefs form and what leads to their transformation among other things from the lens of Political Beliefs. We also looked into who are politically sophisticated people (for conciseness referred to as sophisticated during the conversation) and why they tend to be more aligned with their political parties. We invited Dr. Bert Bakker, who is a Political Scientist and an Associate Prof. of Political Communication and Journalism at the University of Amsterdam to understand this very interesting and complicated subject.

(49:45) - Psychological reasoning behind why sophisticated people might not look to the other side of issues they believe in (i.e. people on the left not willing to understand ideas of the right and vice-versa) and why it's hard to change their beliefs? (57:15) - What leads to drastic shifts in the religious or political beliefs of individuals who grow up in a household of certain beliefs? (63:00) - If you are atheist or agnostic, who do you look up to when things are going bad in life.

In our very first episode of Info Under the Radar we are going to understand our online presence. What happens behind the scenes with our data, how companies process our data, what about those annoying cookie banners? We are also gonna talk about how people from different cultures think about privacy differently. We are going to touch on many aspects of our online presence along with our guest Rajat Sharma. Rajat is currently a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) at booking.com and lives in Amsterdam. Prior to this, he was living in India where he was working for Zomato, which is India's leading food delivery startup. He has been interested in the domain of cybersecurity since his college days and has extensive experience in it. Rajat answered our many questions related to Encryption, what's the fuss with WhatsApp policy changes, how companies use metadata, and more. He also recommends a few key steps we can take to improve our privacy while browsing online. We also talked to him about Have I Been Pwned? which is a site to find out if your personal data has been exposed due to data breaches and what to do if our data gets exposed.
