AI is becoming the most powerful surveillance machine ever built and most people are feeding it their deepest secrets without realizing who can read them. Proton founder Andy Yen joins Bankless to explain how Big Tech captures your identity, why AI chat logs are a privacy disaster waiting to happen, and what a self-sovereign, user-aligned future could look like. We explore how AI models profile you, why subscription business models don't guarantee privacy, how Proton built Lumo without retaining user data, and why encrypted email remains the cornerstone of your digital identity. Andy also breaks down EU “chat control,” Apple's privacy-washing, the crisis of trust in crypto, and the practical steps anyone can take today to reclaim their digital freedom. ---

Julie Scelfo, founder of Mothers Against Media Addiction, sits down with Jon to talk about the impacts AI and social media are having on our kids…and what we can do to stop it.

For more than a century, Warner Bros has been one of Hollywood's biggest players, a legacy studio that helped define the Golden Age of cinema with iconic blockbuster movies. Now, it's at the centre of a contentious, billion-dollar bidding war between Netflix, the world's leading streaming platform, and Paramount Skydance, owned by the powerful Ellison family, which has close ties to President Trump. Whichever way this goes, the outcome isn't looking great. Contributors: Matt Craig - Reporter, Forbes Daheli Hall - Writer and director Lee Hepner - Antitrust lawyer Dominic Patten - Executive editor, Deadline On our radar This week, Australia became the first country in the world to impose a social media ban for children less than the age of 16. The Australian government says it is taking on Big Tech and safeguarding children, but some young people were able to quickly bypass the new rules. Ryan Kohls reports. The Imran Khan rumour mill Despite being in jail for more than two years, Imran Khan continues to occupy airtime in Pakistan. After the army restricted access to Khan, rumours of his death ricocheted across social media.  Pressure from his supporters and family forced the military to lift the restrictions and grant Khan's sisters access to speak to him. Meenakshi Ravi reports on the showdown between Imran Khan and powerful Field Marshal Asim Munir, and what it reveals about power, politics and narrative control in Pakistan.

Chris explores Trump's push for a unified national AI standard, examines how it intersects with the Tenth Amendment, and asks where state authority ends and federal power begins. From refinery-blend absurdities to outlet-standard logic, from protecting kids from deepfakes to protecting communities from soaring utility demands, we break down what this order could mean—and why Big Tech lobbyists are already celebrating.

Has Big Tech become too powerful? Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Meta, and Microsoft shape how we shop, communicate, and consume information. But has their dominance gone too far? Advocates argue these firms are monopolies that harm competition, exploit consumer data, and wield disproportionate influence over public discourse. Structural reforms would restore fairness and innovation. But critics warn that breakups could damage user experience, slow innovation, and disrupt integrated ecosystems people rely on. Now we debate: Should the U.S. Government Break Up Big Tech? Arguing Yes:   Bharat Ramamurti, Founder of The Bully Pulpit; Former Deputy Director of the National Economic Council   Matt Stoller, Director of Research at the American Economic Liberties Project     Arguing No:   Geoffrey A.

Beginning in 2021, when Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter (now X) censored posts by Palestinians protesting their expulsion from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah to today's genocide in Gaza, Big Tech has advanced an imperialist agenda and betrayed its own alleged commitment to free speech and democratic values. Through alliances with the Israeli government and Zionist activists, they have leveraged their massive power to spread propaganda, silence criticism of Israel, and smear dissenters. In our latest, we talk with Prof. Omar Zahzah (@omarzahzah.bsky.social), professor at San Francisco State, and author of "TERMS OF SERVITUDE: zionism, silicon valley, and digital settler colonialism in the palestinian liberation struggle," to discuss the censorship of pro-Palestinian voices, targeting of the Palestinian liberation movement in Gaza and beyond, and the spreading of Zionist propaganda being done by Big Tech. Please listen in on this important interview. Bio//Omar Zahzah is a writer, poet, organizer of Lebanese Palestinian descent, and Assistant Professor of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas (AMED) Studies at San Francisco State University. Omar has covered digital repression in relation to Palestine as a freelance journalist since May 2021, with work appearing in such outlets as Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, Electronic Intifada, Mondoweiss, CounterPunch, and more. He is the Author of “TERMS OF SERVITUDE: zionism, silicon valley, and digital settler colonialism in the palestinian liberation struggle."—————-

A shift in mindset can help investors cope with market uncertainty.2025 was a case study in the futility of trying to predict the market. Wall Street had lofty expectations for stocks entering the year. Then the tariff shock in April rattled the markets and many firms lowered their annual stock forecasts in response. They later raised them—after stock prices rebounded. With the new year on the horizon, Morningstar's 2026 Global Outlook report is offering investors tactics to weather whatever the future may hold.Morningstar strategists and an analyst will discuss key challenges facing investors in 2026 in our series. Dan Kemp, the chief research and investment officer with Morningstar Investment Management Europe, is one of the major driving forces behind the report.We're going to dig into research analyzing the AI arms race and its worldwide buildout. A team of Morningstar researchers have investigated the spending and the risks. Morningstar Research Services' senior equity analyst Brian Colello was part of the effort. Brian also covers Nvidia. He discusses the AI king's outlook, competition, and stock.AI Arms Race: How Tech's Capital Surge Will Reshape the Investment Landscape in 2026 On this episode:00:36:00 Welcome00:01:48 We typically talk about your Markets Brief column, but today we're focusing on “Morningstar's 2026 Global Investment Outlook.” The theme is “preparing for what comes next.” What will investors looking for ways to cope with uncertainty find in this in-depth report? 00:02:35 What makes Morningstar's outlook different from other companies? 00:03:21You've written about how a few ideas from the global investment report resonated with you.

How does it compare to the tech bubble in the late 1990s? 00:12:18 Morningstar believes many investors are already heavily exposed to AI due to Big Tech's size in broad stock indexes. How can folks counteract that? 00:14:31Let's pivot to the AI industry leader, Nvidia. The chipmaker's stock took a big hit when DeepSeek arrived in January.

While tech has taken it on the chin, continuing this week in Broadcom's (AVGO) and Oracle's (ORCL) earnings, Kevin Hincks says market strength remains intact. Why? He tells investors to watch names outside of the Mag 7 as money rotates out of Big Tech and into unsung stocks and sectors. Kevin argues the equal weight trade can continue for the rest of the year. He later touches on President Trump's latest executive order that curbs state restrictions on A.I. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

AI-Titel bleiben unter Druck – der Tech-Abverkauf geht in den dritten Tag. Oracle fällt erneut über 2 %, nachdem schwache Umsätze bereits am Donnerstag zweistellige Verluste ausgelöst hatten. Auch Broadcom rutscht trotz starker Zahlen fast 9 % ab – ebenso Micron und CoreWeave mit weiteren Abschlägen. Der Markt rotiert sichtbar raus aus AI und Big Tech, während Dow und S&P 500 neue Rekorde markieren. Die Nasdaq dagegen bleibt im Minus – belastet von Zweifeln an der Tragfähigkeit der milliardenschweren AI-Investitionen. Morningstar senkt Oracles Fair Value auf 286 Dollar, sieht die Aktie aber trotz Gegenwinds als unterbewertet.

There's a word that's gained a lot of popularity in the last year: “ensh*ttification”. It refers to a trajectory many see with digital platforms: they initially offer immense value to users, only to systematically degrade that quality over time in order to extract maximum surplus for shareholders. We invited the coiner of this term, science fiction author and activist Cory Doctorow, on the podcast to discuss whether he thinks this decline is an inevitable feature of digital markets or a consequence of specific policy failures. And, most importantly, how he thinks it could be reversed.For Doctorow, "ensh*ttification" is not simply a result of "revealed preferences", where users tolerate worse service because they value the platform, but rather the outcome of a regulatory environment that has permitted the creation of high switching costs and the elimination of competitors. Doctorow also argues that historically, interoperability acted as an engine of dynamism, allowing new entrants to lower the barriers to entry. But current IP frameworks, such as anti-circumvention laws, have been "weaponized" to prevent this, effectively allowing firms to enforce cartels and engage in rent-seeking behavior.Finally, Doctorow offers a critical assessment of the current AI boom, arguing that the sector is creating "reverse centaurs", where human labor is conscripted to correct algorithmic errors, and warns of a potential asset bubble driven by inflated revenue attribution.

The “join a hot company” career narrative is getting a lot of PMs into trouble. In Part 2 of our PM Career Framework for AI series, we get practical: how to pick the door that fits you — and spot when a prestigious logo is quietly costing you career momentum.

Episode 88 The U.S. government is considering an executive order that could severely limit each state's ability to protect its residents, so Haley and Dani take a closer look at why this is a serious threat to safety – especially for kids. A.I. is developing at a rapid rate, and it's essential that we don't repeat the same mistakes we made when previous technological leaps were made. At the dawn of the internet, smart phones, and social media, protection for the most vulnerable was a low priority when compared to profit and innovation. We need to speak up now before lawmakers and Big Tech create another accountability shield like Section 230. *DONATE to NCOSE to join this movement: https://EndSexualExploitation.org/Donate  *Read the letter that over 20 organizations signed urging the President NOT to sign this executive order: https://ifstudies.org/blog/mr-president-its-time-to-put-kids-first-in-ai-policy  *A.I.

In this episode of The Liquidity Event, AJ and Shane dive into billionaire wealth gaps, UK "rags to riches" stories, and what happens when fast financial success reshapes friendships. They unpack media narratives, economic inequality, and why Business Insider profiles might not tell the full truth. The conversation expands into EU vs. US tech power, streaming-platform consolidation, and the rise of "enshittification" across the internet. AJ and Shane also cover year-end money moves, including FSA/HSA spending strategies, Trump Accounts, and how early-life investment programs could change generational wealth. They discuss credit-building hacks, life-changing compounding math, and the personal finance implications of giving every American baby a federally funded investment account. The episode closes with a look at what to do with an extra $100K at year-end — plus a few fun ideas for how to blow it in six hours.

David Busch dissects Powell's comments at the post-rate-decision press conference and looks at how the Fed's makeup could change with a new Chair. Looking at tech, he says lower rates will be a tailwind for the sector, and he's still a “firm believer.” He would stay invested in large-caps, but says to offset it with dividend payers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In this explosive conversation on The View From Here, I lay out exactly why Pickax exists as a direct challenge to the surveillance driven, speech crushing agenda of Big Tech. We dig into free speech, free reach, creator ownership, and the spiritual battle unfolding through artificial intelligence as elites push us toward a future that either elevates human freedom or destroys it. Roy, Mike, and I break down the stakes for mankind as AI advances and why platforms like Pickax are essential for anyone who refuses to be silenced, tracked, or controlled.

Big Tech has declared open war on truth, and in this conversation with Andrew Brunet I break down exactly how the digital elites manipulate information, silence dissent, and engineer a controlled narrative. Their censorship is not accidental. It is strategic, coordinated, and aimed at conditioning a society that no longer questions power. Scripture reminds us that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom, and freedom demands that we expose the darkness. This interview shows why your voice matters and how you can stand firm against a system built to silence you.Follow Jeff Dornik on Pickax - https://pickax.com/jeffdornikTune into The Jeff Dornik Show LIVE every Tuesday and Thursday at 1pm ET.

From skyrocketing ADHD diagnoses to nonstop AI-generated brain rot, the research is catching up to what common sense told us years ago: social media is melting young minds. This commentary revisits early warnings, cultural red flags, and the Ghostbusters 2 “negative slime” prediction that turned out to be dead-on. Then we ask the big question: Would the world be better if every social platform vanished tomorrow?

The Heat is On is an investigative series by Scrolling 2 Death, in partnership with Heat Initiative. Sarah Gardner, Founder and CEO of Heat Initiative, joins Nicki (S2D) to expose the truth Big Tech doesn't want you to hear – and this episode is about Meta.Meta's roots reveal a troubling origin story—from Facemash, where students were rated based on their appearance, to becoming one of the most powerful (and dangerous) tech companies in the world, with over 3.3 billion daily users. Behind the sleek apps and promise for connection lies a history of harmful design choices that target young users—fueling anxiety, depression, eating disorders, self-harm, and even suicide.In this episode, you'll hear from former Meta executives and whistleblowers, cybercrime experts, and child-safety researchers who prove that the company knew how harmful its platforms were to kids—and did almost nothing to stop it.Today, over 40 U.S. states, thousands of school districts, and countless families have taken legal action. And yet, Meta continues to push untested, potentially dangerous features—like their new AI chatbot—on teens without parental consent. Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation, weighs in to warn how these harms are reaching an industrial scale and legal action alone is not enough. We all need to work together to hold Big Tech accountable. It's time to turn up the heat: Join our email list. Share this episode. Keep your kids off Meta platforms.Whether you're a parent, caregiver, educator, or simply someone who cares about the well-being of kids, this episode will give you the facts, the tools, and the fire to demand change.‍Hosts: Nicki Petrossi – Host of Scrolling 2 Death Sarah Gardner – Founder & CEO of Heat InitiativeExpert Guests: Kelly Stonelake - Former Meta executive and whistleblowerArturo Bejar - Former Meta executive and whistleblowerPaul Raffile - Cyber analyst and sextortion expertJonathan Haidt - Author of The Anxious Generation‍Resources mentioned in the episode:Instagram Teens research by Parents TogetherNY Times: The Men Who Use Instagram to Groom Child Influencers by Michael KellerExpert editing provided by Jacob Meade.

In this episode of the TriMetric Roadmap Podcast, Scott and Jeff sit down with Mahesh M. Thakur, CEO of Decisive AI, to discuss how business owners can move from AI hype to AI results. Mahesh—one of the world's few Master Certified Stakeholder-Centered Coaches (MCC) and a former executive at Microsoft, Amazon, Intuit, and GoDaddy—shares how leaders can align their teams on a “True North,” integrate AI intelligently, and transform culture, execution, and bottom-line growth. You'll hear how 92% of AI investments currently fail, what separates the 8% that succeed, and how smaller companies can use AI to level the playing field with billion-dollar enterprises. ---- About Mahesh M. Thakur Mahesh M. Thakur is the Founder and CEO of Decisive AI, where he helps CEOs and leadership teams align on their True North and turn AI into ROI™. A former executive at Microsoft, Amazon, Intuit, and GoDaddy, Mahesh is among the world's top 0.1% of Master Certified Stakeholder-Centered Coaches (MCC). He's advised leaders at JPMorgan Chase, Meta, Google, Walmart, PayPal, and John Deere, helping them achieve measurable transformations—from doubling growth rates to cutting decision cycles by 40%. Connect: LinkedIn | Instagram | X (Twitter) ---- 1. What does “AI to ROI” mean? AI to ROI™ is Mahesh's framework for turning artificial intelligence investments into tangible business outcomes—revenue growth, cost savings, and cultural transformation. It blends technology strategy with human alignment. 2. Why do 90% of AI projects fail? Most fail because they lack a clear framework, leadership alignment, or measurable objectives. Companies often jump in due to FOMO, invest heavily, and never achieve integration or adoption that creates ROI. 3. Who should be investing in AI? Every business—from tech firms to law practices to construction companies—can benefit from AI. It's no longer limited to Big Tech; mid-market companies ($10M–$100M) can now compete on equal footing using accessible tools. 4. What is a “Test + Learn™” culture? It's a structured approach that allows organizations to experiment rapidly, measure outcomes, and scale only what works—turning innovation into a repeatable discipline. 5. How can small and mid-sized companies use AI effectively? Start by identifying one or two workflows where automation saves time or improves customer outcomes. Build simple pilots, collect data, and align leadership around shared metrics before scaling. 6. What is the “True North” concept in leadership? True North represents the organization's unifying direction—its mission, values, and goals. Mahesh helps CEOs and teams align on this so that AI and strategy serve the same purpose. 7. How does AI connect to leadership and faith? Mahesh believes great leaders must balance faith and data. Without alignment, AI becomes fear-driven. True mastery integrates wisdom, courage, and belief that technology should serve humanity, not replace it. 8. What's next for Decisive AI and Business Freedom Advisors? Scott and Mahesh announced upcoming collaborations to help business owners design both a Business Roadmap and an AI Roadmap for 2026.

It's time for us to jump from the hijacked plane of the Republican Party and parachute into a new party. Today, I ruminate over the infamous “Flight 93” essay of 2016 to show how that election was actually not the inflection moment. This one is. If conservatives do not evacuate from this terrible party, they will lose red states, communists will take over, and we won't even have a chance to rebuild until at least 2029, after it's too late. I also discuss how Republicans are suffering worse electoral reprisal from pushing Big Tech economic policy than they would have incurred by fulfilling the original promise to cut the debt and entitlements and rebalance the economy away from the Mag 7 companies to small business.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Lionel exposes the explosive political fight over a federal executive order that stripped states of child safety guard rails and details how massive corporate consolidation could feed AI algorithms with a century of storytelling (including Looney Tunes and Harry Potter). Then, explore the critical decline of education, the loss of cognitive skills like cursive writing, and the existential threat of AI. From the terrifying realities of modern delivery culture (like the Amish Buggy Amazon Cart) to uproarious recollections of Catholic school—including the wisdom of bribing teachers and astonishing facts about St. Drogo, the patron saint of ugly people and coffee—this is essential insight into how we think and how we must fix our ability to think.

Lionel and Lynn Shaw (Lynn's Warriors) expose the seismic, overlooked threats posed by Big Tech and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to American youth and families. Learn how unscrupulous tech predators view your children's "soul as nothing more than data to harvest and profit to extract". The discussion covers the explosive dissension in Washington regarding a federal executive order that wiped out 50 state AI laws, handing total control to Washington and stripping states of child safety guard rails. Furthermore, they analyze the massive consolidation of cultural power if one corporation absorbs a century of storytelling (including Looney Tunes and Harry Potter), potentially feeding AI algorithms that saturate childhood with targeted content and emotional hooks. Lynn details the misleading app store ratings, Apple's intentionally complex 31-step child safety settings, and the rise of AI-generated content (like the AI model Tilly Norwood and number-one hit songs) replacing human creativity.

We launched PAXIS yesterday as the answer to the cruelty and lawlessness of ICE. In our first 24 hours, we raised over $7,000 to launch this new AI-powered, know-your-rights tool for immigrants (and citizens!) facing down ICE. We did it with no media outreach, no massive PR campaign, no big donors—just me talking to you, and you responding. Why? Because Trump can't stop hundreds of thousands or even millions of us.

If conservatives remain trapped in the Trump-Vance GOP, they will continue to suffer all the liabilities of Big Tech venture socialism with all the political liabilities that will turn more voters into Democrats. We need a new party built upon natural living and natural markets to move away from the fake, asset-bubble economy championed by both parties, including Trump. Today, I vividly diagnose exactly how the government uses federal pensions, artificially low interest rates, public and private debt, and numerous regulatory policies to destroy the middle class and small business. The economy is analogous to an AI hallucination bubble that is like a self-licking ice-cream cone and continues to create monopolies. A new party, untethered from the GOP's past, could crush the Democrats using this message and vision.    Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

My guest today is entrepreneur and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. He's now facing something most tech business people never imagine: being personally targeted by a sitting president's Department of Justice. Reid and I talk through the rise of politically motivated prosecutions, the erosion of trust in institutions, and how social media and AI have accelerated our collective slide into suspicion. We get into deepfakes, vaccine skepticism, the inequality debate, and whether billionaires should exist at all. Reid also walks me through what it's like to wait for an indictment he believes is purely retaliatory. This is a conversation about democratic guardrails, not partisan talking points—and about what happens when political power becomes personal. Learn more about your ad choices.
