A former Channel 9 tech commentator reveals why he abandoned his media career to create a safer phone for kids after witnessing the devastating effects of unrestricted device access. In this eye-opening conversation, Charlie Brown shares shocking insider stories about social media dangers and offers hope to parents navigating the digital landscape. If you've ever worried about giving your child a phone, this episode could change everything. Quote of the Episode: "Do not ever let them have unfettered access to the internet on any device at all, ever." - Charlie Brown Key Points: The age of first phone adoption is getting younger while devices are becoming more powerful and potentially dangerous. Most parental controls have significant limitations or can be circumvented. Social media platforms deliberately make frequent changes to stay ahead of parental understanding. The impact of current tech decisions on children won't be fully understood for 5-10 years. Parents need to work collaboratively with children rather than taking an adversarial approach. Device-free car rides create opportunities for meaningful family conversation. The dangers of TikTok extend beyond individual privacy to potential sociopolitical manipulation. Resources Mentioned: G-mee Phones Spriggy (banking app) Google Family Link Apple Screen Time TikTok Action Steps for Parents: Implement some form of parental controls on all devices. Create tech-free zones and times (like car rides) for family connection. Have regular conversations with children about their digital experiences. Build trust so children feel safe discussing online challenges. Consider alternatives to standard smartphones for younger children. Remove unfettered internet access from children's devices. Model healthy tech habits by reducing your own screen time. Work collaboratively with children rather than taking a purely restrictive approach.

Big Tech expecting to spend as much as $320B in capital expenditures in 2025, as much as 40% higher than even last-year's stratospheric spend. We look at how investor sentiment is cooling towards the soaring AI investments.
Countries with better institutions are more prosperous. A truism perhaps, but then why are they so hard to build and sustain? That is the question that Simon Johnson has sought to explain since the fall of communism and the basis for the research that won him the 2024 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. Johnson, a former IMF chief economist, now a professor at MIT in the Sloan School of Management, shares the award with James Robinson and Daron Acemoglu, who's also coauthor of his latest book Power and Progress, which challenges the assumption that technology equals progress. In this podcast, Johnson says when controlled by a select few, tech innovation can be self-serving and risk undermining the institutions that make it possible. Transcript: https://bit.ly/4b2V1aV

This is an audio version of an essay on my substack, Process This. The essay explores how digital platforms have transformed human experience into a new form of colonialism. It discusses the historical evolution of the internet from a decentralized space to one controlled by tech giants, and highlights the data extraction, surveillance, and algorithmic governance that dominate modern digital spaces. By drawing parallels to historical colonialism, the essay outlines the systematic ways in which platforms explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate alternative ways of being social. It also examines the rise of a new digital aristocracy in Silicon Valley and the erosion of personal autonomy. Finally, it explores emerging forms of resistance and reimagination, emphasizing the need for digital wisdom, community-owned platforms, and new forms of digital literacy to reclaim human autonomy and genuine connection.

Ed Zitron is one of Silicon Valley's fiercest critics. Since A.I's arrival, Ed has virulently exposed its singular lack of intelligence, its huge energy demands, and the dangerous way its hoovering up attention and capital on nothing more than the vague promises of a couple of zealots. He joins me to reveals the myths that abound in the Valley, and the reality that everyone has run out of ideas. He explains that Big Tech is no longer run by techologists but by “barely smart” capitalists who are desperately banking on A.I. to create a new hyper growth market to pull their flailing companies out of their slumps. He walks us through the “enshittification” of tech — why things are getting worse, who's in charge, who's pretending to have ideas, and how these powerful men build up their images as geniuses rather than grossly wealthy headless chickens.Sadly, this episode was recorded before Elon's rapid takeover of the American government and China's humble popping of the A.I bubble (proving Ed right).

Elon Musk's presence at a White House press conference surprised journalists when President Trump gave him the stage to address questions about his growing governmental influence. Jeff Mason, White House correspondent for Reuters, who asked Musk about claims of a “hostile takeover” of government, describes the experience. The Trump administration has announced significant cuts to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which provides funding to independent media organisations worldwide. Max Tani, reporter for Semafor, explains how this decision affects news outlets, particularly those operating in countries where press freedom is under threat. BBC Media Action, the BBC's international charity, has been affected by the cuts, with USAID previously providing millions in funding. Its CEO, Simon Bishop, clarifies the organisation's role and responds to Elon Musk's claim that USAID funds the BBC directly. The attention economy is reshaping the way people engage with media and technology. Chris Hayes, host of MSNBC's All In, draws comparisons between Big Tech's monetisation of attention and the Industrial Revolution's transformation of labour. He discusses the social and political consequences of mass digital engagement and offers insight into potential regulatory solutions.

This Day in Legal History: Milošević Stands TrialOn February 12, 2002, the trial of former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milošević began at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague. It was the first time a former head of state was tried for war crimes by an international tribunal. Milošević faced 66 charges, including genocide, crimes against humanity, and violations of the laws of war, stemming from conflicts in Bosnia, Croatia, and Kosovo during the 1990s. Prosecutors accused him of orchestrating ethnic cleansing campaigns that led to mass killings, deportations, and atrocities, particularly against Bosniaks, Croats, and Kosovar Albanians. Defiantly refusing to recognize the tribunal's legitimacy, Milošević insisted on representing himself in court. The trial, one of the most complex in modern history, lasted over four years, involving thousands of documents and hundreds of witnesses. His defense centered on denying personal responsibility, blaming NATO, and portraying himself as a protector of Serbs. However, the proceedings never reached a conclusion—Milošević died of a heart attack in his prison cell on March 11, 2006, before a verdict could be issued. His death frustrated victims who sought justice and left legal scholars debating whether the trial had succeeded in advancing international accountability. The case, despite its abrupt end, set a precedent for prosecuting heads of state for war crimes and influenced later trials, including those of Charles Taylor and Omar al-Bashir.The U.S. Justice Department under President Donald Trump has significantly reduced its anti-corruption enforcement, halting prosecutions and weakening key laws. Officials have pulled back on enforcing the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bans corporate bribery abroad, arguing that American companies should not be penalized for standard international business practices. Prosecutors were also ordered to drop a criminal case against New York Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat with ties to Trump, citing his re-election campaign and other priorities. In addition, the department has disbanded efforts to sanction Russian oligarchs and dismissed veteran prosecutors who handled cases against Trump. Attorney General Pam Bondi framed these actions as an attempt to root out political bias in the justice system. Ethics officials and independent government watchdogs have been fired or reassigned, including inspectors general and whistleblower protection leaders. Critics, including legal scholars and former officials, warn that these moves align law enforcement with Trump's political agenda and weaken anti-corruption safeguards established after Watergate. Republican Senator Chuck Grassley has expressed concern and vowed to investigate, while some Democrats and former prosecutors see the changes as an effort to dismantle legal mechanisms designed to hold public officials accountable.Trump's Justice Department hits the brakes on anti-corruption enforcement | ReutersGail Slater, President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the Justice Department's antitrust division, is set to face tough questioning from the Senate during her confirmation hearing. As a former economic adviser to Vice President JD Vance and a veteran antitrust attorney, Slater would oversee major cases against tech giants like Google and Apple if confirmed. Senate Democrats are expected to press her on maintaining enforcement and independence, especially amid concerns that the administration is undermining the DOJ's traditional nonpartisanship. Senator Cory Booker has raised alarms about potential staffing cuts at the DOJ's antitrust division, warning they could weaken protections for consumers. Other Democrats, including Senators Peter Welch and Amy Klobuchar, plan to question Slater on her commitment to continuing efforts to lower prices in healthcare, housing, and agriculture. Meanwhile, Republican Senator Mike Lee has voiced support for Slater, expecting her to carry on Trump's push against Big Tech monopolies. Slater's background includes roles at Fox Corp, Roku, and a now-defunct tech industry lobbying group, raising further concerns about her potential ties to the companies she would regulate. Her confirmation will be a key test of the administration's approach to antitrust enforcement and corporate consolidation.Trump's DOJ antitrust nominee to be grilled on enforcement | ReutersTom Goldstein, co-founder of SCOTUSblog, has asked to be released from jail after prosecutors accused him of violating his release conditions by secretly moving millions in cryptocurrency. Goldstein was arrested after a Maryland federal court found probable cause that he had misled officials about his finances. The government claims he used undisclosed crypto wallets for large transactions while arguing in court that he needed his home's equity to fund his defense. Goldstein's attorneys argue the government is mistaken, stating that he does not own the wallets in question. They claim text messages cited by prosecutors actually show Goldstein directing funds to a third party to settle a debt, not controlling the wallets himself. Goldstein faces charges of tax evasion, aiding false tax returns, failing to pay taxes, and lying on a loan application, with prosecutors alleging he concealed gambling income and misused his firm's funds. He has pleaded not guilty and maintains he will be exonerated at trial. His legal team, including lawyers from Munger Tolles & Olson LLP, has filed an emergency motion for his release, and he has also been permitted to represent himself in court.Tom Goldstein Seeks Release, Denies Control Over Crypto WalletsNew Jersey's proposed bill, S1756, is a smart adjustment to the state's senior property tax relief system, allowing older homeowners to downsize without losing their eligibility for tax benefits. Right now, seniors who move must restart the tax reimbursement process, which can mean higher property taxes and a financial disincentive to selling. By making these benefits portable, the bill removes an unnecessary barrier to housing mobility, freeing up larger homes for younger families without adding excessive costs to the state budget. This approach is a model for other states struggling with housing shortages and inefficient tax incentives, but it's not perfect. The bill's $500,000 income cap is too high, providing relief to seniors who may not need it. A more reasonable threshold—like 500% of the federal poverty level—would better target those on fixed incomes. Additionally, a cap on home values would ensure benefits don't go to wealthy homeowners with expensive properties but low taxable income. A reasonable solution would be to apply tax relief only to the first 150% of a state's median home price, preventing subsidies from disproportionately benefiting the wealthy. Ultimately, this bill corrects a major flaw in New Jersey's tax policy without overhauling the system or eliminating relief for seniors who need it. But states following this example should refine their programs to ensure they help those who truly need assistance, rather than offering broad-based entitlements that distort housing markets.NJ Senior Property Tax Relief Needs Nuance to Be Most Effective This is a public episode.

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Gil Duran, journalist based in California, proprietor of the website The Nerd Reich, co-writer of the FrameLab newsletter, to discuss his recent piece in The Nerd Reich entitled "'Reboot' Revealed: Elon Musk's CEO-Dictator Playbook." First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump/Elon's abject refusal to follow court orders, the release of the White House Ethics Czar, the repeal of a ban on bribing foreign officials, the DOJ dropping its case against Eric Adams in an open case of blackmail, Trump's gutting of the CFPB, Oregon Nurses' ongoing labor battle, IRS and ICE, Mike Johnson's Budget, and Hegseth's revival of Fort Bragg, before diving a little deeper into the open insanity of the ongoing collusion between Eric Adams and the Trump Regime. Gil Duran then joins, diving right into the concept of the Network State – an idea advanced by Big Tech's thought leader Curtis Yarvin and his billionaire buddies (Thiel, Andreessen, Musk, etc) that Tech CEOs should take advantage of the collapse of Nation States and democracy in favor of establishing corporate, CEO-run dictatorship, either by gutting and replacing existing governments or purchasing sovereign territories – as Duran unpacks his first introduction to this ideology with Silicon Valley's attempt to hijack San Francisco's political institutions, before parsing a little deeper through the recent, much more public discussions of this theory advanced by the likes of Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, and Curtis Yarvin. After expanding on how we are already seeing the blueprint for a Network State in action, with Trump serving as a figurehead to a Tech CEO's gutting of our administrative and democratic institutions in favor of sycophants and centralized power, Duran looks to how this came to be the active ideology of the GOP so quickly, unpacking how the collapse of the Biden campaign and naming of JD Vance as Trump's VP opened up an opportunity for the Big Tech to step in, starting with Elon's massive public $300m investment and culminating in Yarvin's Reboot conference in San Francisco last September, exploring the obvious parallels between Big Tech's dictator obsession and the GOP's white nationalism and parsing through their unified scapegoating of “woke” and “DEI” in the leadup to the election to the point of completely dominating both mainstream and social media (bolstered by the financial leverage and ownership Big Tech has over those institutions). Next, Gil, Sam, and Emma unpack the major challenges facing the Trump-Musk regime, as Trump is on his last legs with no other favorable alternative in sight while any failure to maintain control over both political and media institutions potentially meaning a complete upending of their “progress,” not to mention the obvious lack of preparedness (or ability) for this institution to deal with any real public or institutional opposition – the latter of which seems to be particularly hopeless among Democratic leadership – wrapping up by emphasizing the genuine insecurity this regime faces in the face of public scrutiny and touching on the potential danger of Big Tech's goal of replacing the US Dollar with Bitcoin. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Rep. Gerry Connolly – aka Pelosi's pick to take over AOC's bid for Oversight chair – embody the Democrats' impotence amid an ongoing threat to US Democracy, parse through some highlights from a “Hands off our CFPB” rally, and unpack Hakeem Jeffries' claim (and thus failure to address) that access to healthcare is an established right. They also touch on the ongoing GOP push to gut your Medicaid/Medicare and Social Security, before basking in the hilarity of Milo Yiannopoulos questioning Tim Pool's failure to background check the millions he was getting from Russia, plus, your IMs! It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Gil Duran, journalist based in California, proprietor of the website The Nerd Reich, co-writer of the FrameLab newsletter, to discuss his recent piece in The Nerd Reich entitled "'Reboot' Revealed: Elon Musk's CEO-Dictator Playbook."

Send us a textIn this jam-packed episode of the Unofficial Companion Podcast to HBO Max's Industry, we dive into Season 2, Episode 4, There Are Some Women. This week, we delve into the nuanced depiction of compensation negotiations, or "comp season," exploring the implications of Harper's bonus reveal and the significance of her $25 million contribution to PeerPoint. What does it mean to be "paid at the upper end of the band"? And why do analysts and associates have their bonuses capped, even when they deliver exceptional results? We also touch on the regulatory requirement of "mandatory two-week vacations" in the trading world, designed to uncover potential fraud—a detail that adds authenticity to the storyline as Eric grapples with his sidelined status.We also dissect the fictional telemedicine company FastAid, a thinly veiled reference to the shifting healthcare market dynamics. From the challenges of last-mile care to the implications of Big Tech's consolidation in the healthcare space, we discuss the real-world parallels of Amazon's acquisition of One Medical and how it reflects larger trends in private equity and telemedicine. The episode further explores the financial strategies of Yasmin's family office, raising questions about liquidity management, diversification, and the role of private equity in reshaping legacy businesses.Finally, we examine how power dynamics permeate every facet of the characters' lives—whether it's Eric's struggle for control, DVD's attempts to outshine Harper, or Gus's foray into politics. Mentor-mentee relationships become a recurring theme, blurring the lines between personal and professional. We'll also analyze how these dynamics are often underpinned by issues of wealth, privilege, and ambition.

Sohrab Ahmari, founder and editor of Compact, joins James Poulos to discuss the new Trump-era of nationalism and populism centered on workers, tariffs, and immigration policy. As Trump brings Elon Musk into the conversation, conservatives are divided over Musk's libertarian, techno-utopian vision where AI and free markets drive the future. Will these two visions clash in the near future? Ahmari warns private power like Big Tech and leaders like Elon Musk can be just as dangerous as government overreach - something libertarian's need to take note of. With corporate influence, Section 230, woke capitalism, and the rise of digital censorship still shaping the political landscape, conservatives must decide: Should they trust Musk or challenge him?

Čistka Elona Muska - pljačka stoljeća ili obračun s uhljebima? Muskov DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), državno tijelo čiji je zadatak ustanoviti gdje nepotrebno odlazi novac, ustanovio je da na godišnjoj razini "curi" oko 250 milijardi dolara. Kako bi Musk mogao vidjeti kamo se novac uplaćuje dobio je pristup Državnoj riznici - odnosno računalnim sustavu pomoću kojeg se izvršavaju sva plaćanja za cijelu federalnu vladu. Navodno podtake može samo čitati u svrhu anliziranja isplata, a na kraju će dati prijedloge koje agencije ili tijela ukinuti, a kome dati otkaz.Kada već spominjemo Big Tech igrače, Google je odlužio ažurirati svoje etičke smjernice. Maknuli su obećanje kako neće koristiti AI za razvoj oružja i nadzornih alata - što je potez kojeg opravdavaju globalnim promjenama i pitanjima nacionalne sigurnosti. Ova odluka je donesena baš u trenutku kada je vrijednost njihovih dionica pala za 8 % i kada je najvaljeno ulaganje 75 milijardi u AI. _______________00:00 Uvod01:00 Muskov DOGE je otkrio da "curi" 250 milijardi dolara06:56 Elon je dobio pristup podacima Državne riznice?11:08 Znaju li Elonovi programeri koristiti COBOL?19:03 Google je ažurirao svoje etičke smjernice... i neće proizvoditi oružje?25:13 FLOP ovog tjedna27:38 TOP ovog tjedna_______________

Big Tech is going all-in on AI, with a projected $325 billion in capital expenditures for 2025—but is it a smart bet? In this episode, we break down what CapEx is, why companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta are spending massive sums to build AI infrastructure, and how Wall Street is reacting. While Nvidia remains the biggest winner of this spending spree, open-source AI models like DeepSeek could disrupt the market. Plus, we analyze why Meta is thriving while other tech giants face growing investor skepticism—tune in for the full breakdown!The content of the video is for general and informational purposes only.

This week, Jason and Brian dive into the chaos surrounding Elon Musk's growing influence in government tech, with young engineers playing key roles in his takeover. DOGE employees are being ordered off Slack, USAID is crumbling, and Musk's war with U.S. officials rages on. Meanwhile, AI takes center stage with the EU banning high-risk systems, DeepSeek's security concerns, and Amazon throwing down $100 billion on AI advancements. Big Tech moves are equally absurd—Google is now open to AI-powered weapons, Meta might scrap risky AI models, and Tesla is struggling in Europe thanks to Elon's latest blunders. Meanwhile, states are rushing to pour taxpayer money into so-called “strategic cryptocurrency reserves.”In entertainment, The Devil May Cry anime's ridiculous theme song is a standout, Mythic Quest returns, and Beast Games looks promising. AI controversially helped The Beatles score a Grammy, and Denis Villeneuve is making Dune 3 because, well, fans demanded it. Over in reboot land, Sarah Michelle Gellar may return for a Buffy revival on Hulu with Chloé Zhao at the helm, while Neil Gaiman finds himself in serious legal trouble. Gadget fans get a look at the Anker Zolo charger, a Google search trick to dodge AI summaries, and Apple's latest social feature. Also, say goodbye to Apple's AR glasses before they even had a chance to shine.Dave Bittner joins The Dark Side segment with updates on cybersecurity, including a wave of ransomware payment refusals and the Andersons' infamous eviction from Disneyland's most exclusive club.

Feb 7, 2025 – Jim Puplava and Dave Keller delve into the reasons behind recent market volatility and what is taking place with specific sectors in the market. Is this indicative of an impending correction or simply a market pause...
