In a program devoted to the topic of AI, Ralph welcomes first, Tyson Slocum, director of the energy group at Public Citizen, who tells us about the local backlash against the construction of data centers. Then New York Times climate writer, David Wallace-Wells, explains how the Big Tech CEOs did not count on human beings possibly rising up against them and their machines.Tyson Slocum is director of Public Citizen's Energy Program, covering the regulation of petroleum, natural gas and power markets. He serves on the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission's “Energy & Environmental Markets Advisory Committee,” and frequently intervenes before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) representing the interests of household consumers.The basic question is they (Big Tech companies) are developing essentially governmental powers— governmental powers— not market powers or corporate powers. They've reached a level now where they are our government, the corporate government. And we have to escalate our urgencies to that level. It's more than just the hour is late. The hour is over. So we have to go back and respond with a completely unprecedented level of public interest, standards, etc., including whether this technology (AI) should be allowed at all.Ralph NaderI definitely see that we are in a speculative bubble. That bubble will burst. And folks within the AI industry, like Sam Altman, have been very clear where they have publicly said, when the bubble breaks, we expect to get a financial bailout because our AI applications are so important to the national interest.Tyson SlocumAnd the backlash to data centers isn't just about, oh, I'm concerned about my power rates going up or I'm concerned about the noise or the water usage. It's also a civil rights and human rights issue where people are saying, I don't like this vision that Big Tech is laying out for us that is going to be produced in this building down the street from our community.Tyson SlocumDavid Wallace-Wells is a columnist and staff writer at the New York Times, where he writes a weekly newsletter on climate change, technology, and the future of the planet. He is the author of the book, The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming. His recent feature in the New York Times Magazine is “AI Populism is Here. And No One is Ready.”Just over the last six months, there's been a huge surge in anti-AI and in particular anti-data center organizing and activism in the U.S. And you can see that on the ground where you see huge crowds coming to town halls to protest new data centers that are being proposed. You see some towns that have approved those data centers literally having their entire city council voted out of office as a result. And you see it in these surveys where within the span of just a few months. Huge sentiment flips among the American public from being basically agnostic about AI with some misgivings and some optimism to pretty striking majority opposition to the technology and the infrastructure build out that it requires.David Wallace-WellsThis (AI) is a technological revolution that has been designed and is being built by an extremely small number of people with very particular idiosyncratic, in certain ways, I think, somewhat sociopathic worldviews.David Wallace-WellsNews 6/5/26* Our top story this week comes from Congress, where the House has, at long last, successfully pushed through a War Powers Resolution on Iran. As NPR notes “The resolution had originally been set for a vote two weeks ago, but Republican leaders sent House members home early for a May recess when it appeared the largely Democratic-backed measure had enough Republican votes for passage.” However, this did not substantially erode Republican support and the resolution passed by a margin of 215 to 208, with four Republicans, led by Thomas Massie, voting for a cessation of hostilities. The measure now heads to the Senate, where Democrats have been pressing the matter as well but face an uphill battle, and even if it passes through the upper chamber, President Trump is likely to veto the measure if it arrives on his desk. Moreover, House progressives are now pushing a new War Powers Resolution, this one focusing on Lebanon. POLITICO reports Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib forced a vote this Thursday on a resolution calling for the removal of U.S. troops from Lebanon in seven days, despite opposition from the leadership of her own party. The resolution failed by a wide margin, but still garnered a respectable 92 votes, including support from Congressman Massie. Symbolic though they may be, these votes show a growing backlash to Trump's military adventurism abroad, particularly in the Middle East. With oil prices continuing to rise, this discontent shows no sign of abating.* The main news this week however were the primaires. Tuesday saw a wave of major Democratic primaries across the country. Faiz Shakir, longtime advisor to Bernie Sanders and Executive Director of More Perfect Union, reports that election night was a “clean sweep for Bernie's endorsements” with five out of five of these candidates set to win the Democratic nomination in their respective races. One race Shakir highlighted was Sam Forstag's bid for Congress in Montana's 1st congressional district. Forstag, a firefighter – technically a “smokejumper,” who parachutes into remote areas to extinguish wildfires – earned the endorsements of AOC, Jamie Raskin, Pramila Jayapal and others, as well as many unions, in addition to that of Senator Sanders. Meanwhile in the Montana Senate race, Alani Bankhead has triumphed in the Democratic primary. According to Semafor, “Republicans suspect Bankhead will essentially cede the race to [independent candidate Seth] Bodnar (despite her denials), which would make the general election more competitive.” Bodnar is the former president of the University of Montana and his campaign is backed by former Democratic Senator Jon Tester. One recent poll of a head-to-head match up of Bodnar against Republican nominee Kurt Alme shows the candidates in a dead heat.* In New Jersey, two more Sanders-endorsed candidates have emerged victorious: Analilia Mejia and Dr. Adam Hamawy. Mejia won the special election to replace now-Governor Mikie Sherill in April, beating out former Congressman Tom Malinowksi, the heavy favorite in that race. Mejia is very likely to win this seat again in November, as she already defeated the Republican nominee, Joe Hathaway, in the special election. This from MorristownGreen. Perhaps more surprisingly is the victory of Dr. Adam Hamawy. Now a plastic surgeon, he has distinguished himself for his heroism: saving the life of now-Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth when her Blackhawk helicopter was shot down in Iraq, serving as a first responder to the 9/11 attacks, and most recently, for his work in Gaza. As the Intercept puts it, “In 2024, [Hamawy]...went to Gaza to provide medical aid to Palestinians wounded by Israeli forces and was temporarily trapped there after Israel closed the Rafah border crossing. When the crossing was reopened, Hamawy was among a small group who refused to leave on demands that more medical workers be let in.” Hamawy's progressive policy platform includes support for Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, and opposing military aid to Israel. He is almost guaranteed to win this D+13 seat, succeeding Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman.* The candidates Bernie endorsed in California also prevailed, with Randy Villegas poised to win his primary in the state's 22nd congressional district and Jane Kim winning her race for California Insurance Commissioner, but the results from the state overall are more mixed. As of now, Republican Gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton leads in the count, with centrist Democrat and former Secretary of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra in a close second and progressive billionaire Tom Steyer in third. However, as the count continues, Steyer's margin continues to improve while Hilton's ebbs away – meaning the runoff could end up being Becerra vs. Steyer, though it is still too early to say. A similar dynamic is unfolding in Los Angeles, where incumbent Mayor Karen Bass is ensured a slot in the general election while her opponents – Councilwoman Nithya Raman to her left and former reality TV star Spencer Pratt to her right – continue to duke it out for the second slot. With California's notoriously glacial counting pace and the LA Times reporting that millions of ballots remain to be counted, all we can do is watch and wait.* However, up in Minnesota, another Bernie-backed candidate is on the road to victory. On Tuesday, Peggy Flanagan, the Lieutenant Governor seeking the Senate seat being vacated by Amy Klobuchar, overwhelmingly won the endorsement of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party. Her closest rival, Congresswoman Angie Craig, did not even bother to attend the party convention. While Craig decried the supposed anti-democratic nature of a party convention endorsement, Flanagan posted a video telling Craig “If you can't show up and face your own party, then you're not ready to face Republicans,” per the Nation. Flanagan can boast the endorsement of many high-profile progressives in addition to Sanders, such as Senators Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey, and Minnesota's own Tina Smith, among many others. If elected, she would be the first ever Native American woman to serve as Governor of an American state.* More much-publicized endorsements came this week from AOC and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who both endorsed DSA-aligned legislative candidates, but as City and State NY notes, not the same ones. Mamdani gave his blessing to Darializa Avila Chevalier, a DSA-backed candidate running to unseat powerful Rep. Adriano Espaillat who is seeking his sixth term in Congress. Polling shows Avila Chevalier runs ahead of Espaillat when voters learn about her platform, but lags behind due to low name recognition – something the Zohran endorsement is sure to help remedy. Meanwhile AOC issued her endorsement of four DSA candidates for the state legislature. This all suggests that the two titans of the New York City Democratic Socialist movement are coordinating – with Zohran seeking to boost DSA's prospects without alienating the New York state establishment and vice versa for AOC – but that is nothing more than a hunch.* Looking southward, lame duck Republican Senator John Cornyn this week posted an article on his official Twitter page titled “Libertarian Ted Brown courts disaffected conservative voters in Texas' U.S. Senate race,” from Houston Public Media. Senator Cornyn's comment – “Ruh roh” – set off a firestorm of speculation that this was a subtle endorsement of the Libertarian's campaign and intended to undermine the campaign of his erstwhile opponent and victor of the Republican Senate primary, Ken Paxton. While Cornyn has furiously denied that this is in any way an endorsement of Brown, calling even the “characterization” that he is “promoting” this candidate “fake news,” there is little doubt that posting about Brown from his official account constitutes a promotion of the campaign, albeit not an endorsement. It will be interesting to see whether Cornyn takes other subtle, or not so subtle, digs at Paxton over the course of the campaign, given that he seems to hold a substantial degree of antipathy towards the Texas Attorney General.* Our next two stories come to us from Florida. First, in Florida's 24th congressional district, the National Journal reports longtime Congresswoman Frederica Wilson will not seek reelection. We recently discussed Congresswoman Wilson on this segment when it was revealed that she had been MIA from the House for weeks following an undisclosed eye surgery. Wilson is 82 years old. The National Journal couches this story in the context of aged members of Congress accepting, or more often refusing, to pass the torch. In its gerontocracy tracker, it highlights members like Doris Matsui, John Garamendi, Jim Clyburn and Maxine Waters, all of whom are 80 years old or older, who are actively seeking reelection this cycle.* Meanwhile, in Florida's 20th district, the Sunshine State's redistricting initiative has put the historically Black district in jeopardy. Under the newly drawn lines, the frontrunner in this seat is Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and though she claims the Congressional Black Caucus and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told her that “they know I know our community” the CBC has not endorsed her and Rep. Yvette Clarke, the CBC's chairwoman, said the caucus did not encourage Wasserman Schultz to run in the district. However, there are currently four Black candidates vying for the seat previously held by Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, including Cherfilus-McCormick herself as well as progressive challenger Elijah Manley, former Mayor of Broward County Dale Holness and Luther Campbell the former rapper more famously known as Uncle Luke. Now, according to the Miami Herald, all four of these candidates are meeting to “discuss coalescing behind one candidate.” Manley is quoted in this piece saying that while they have not reached an agreement, they “did agree that we needed to consolidate,” and he said the “conversations are going on. They have been very constructive and fruitful.” It is encouraging that in the wake of Callais decision we are beginning to see a more strategic approach to Black political representation, which has been too long monopolized by powerful longtime incumbents intent on nothing so much as preserving their own fiefdoms.* Finally, in a story shocking to exactly no one, Axios is out with a new report showing that the National Guard occupation of Washington D.C. has done little to reduce crime in the District. Per a new study by the centrist Niskansen Center, while the security theater of the deployment seems to have deterred “opportunistic” property crime, violent crime remained on the same downward trajectory it had been on since before the deployment. Moreover, the promised co-benefit – that the presence of the Guard would free up the Metropolitan Police Department to focus on high-crime areas – did not materialize at all. Despite these lackluster results, President Trump plans to double the National Guard presence in Washington – which already costs $1.5 million a day – ahead of the 250th anniversary events this summer. This is an outrageous waste of taxpayer money especially now that we know for sure how little impact this hostile occupation is actually having on driving down violent crime.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Charles Schwab's Michelle Gibley talks about her expectations for the meeting between President Trump and Xi Jinping in China. She believes if Trump and the group of Big Tech CEOs traveling with him can strike up non-strategic deals, it will set the foundation to rebuild international relations between the U.S. and China. Sticking with global movers, Michelle talks about the push by SK Hynix employees to include portions of the company's profits in bonuses. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

For years, Big Tech CEOs have touted visions of AI agents that can autonomously use software applications to complete tasks for people. But take today's consumer AI agents out for a spin, whether it's OpenAI's ChatGPT Agent or Perplexity's Comet, and you'll quickly realize how limited the technology still is. Making AI agents more robust may take a new set of techniques that the industry is still discovering. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jon Herold delivers a fast-paced Labor Day week episode packed with testimony, corruption, and courtroom battles. He breaks down RFK Jr.'s fiery congressional exchange exposing decades of CDC lies, vaccine cover-ups, and pharma-funded science fraud, calling it one of the biggest red pills yet. Herold then digs into the DOJ's new criminal probe into Fed Governor Lisa Cook over mortgage fraud, tying it to Trump's push to clean house at the Federal Reserve. He highlights Trump's booming oil production stats, his Supreme Court appeal to uphold sweeping tariff powers, and looming shutdown battles in Congress. With sharp commentary, Herold also covers Epstein file fights, DC's lawsuit over National Guard deployments, Chicago bracing for federal troop arrivals, and Trump's private dinner with Big Tech CEOs at the newly renovated Rose Garden. Mixed with sponsor shoutouts, Soft Disclosure plugs, and his trademark humor, from “pharmasuticals” to Bernie Sanders' unkempt hair...this episode blends heavy policy with cultural punchlines.

During the Biden Administration, few figures in Washington sparked so much debate and caused so much spilled ink as Lina Khan. The Wall Street Journal published over 80 editorials criticizing her approach, while politically opposed tech titans like LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman and Tesla's Elon Musk called for her firing. Meanwhile, an unlikely coalition of progressive Democrats like Elizabeth Warren and populist Republicans like JD Vance rallied behind her vision of more aggressive antitrust enforcement.For many, her ambitious cases against Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta weren't merely legal challenges. They represented a fundamental break from the antitrust philosophy that had dominated for decades across administrations. These cases now transfer to Trump's FTC, creating a test of regulatory continuity at a time when Big Tech CEOs are looking to curry favor with the White House.In this conversation, Khan reflects on her legacy, discusses what critics may have misunderstood about her approach, and explores how the movement she catalyzed might evolve.

Saagar Enjeti is the co-host of Breaking Points. He joins Big Technology podcast to asses whether the Big Tech CEOs will win their Trump bet, assessing the stakes involved, the positioning, and the likely outcomes. We talk about Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Jeff Bezos, and, of course, Elon Musk. Stay tuned as we discuss how the U.S. and China will handle the AI battle, especially after DeepSeek. And we end with a fun back and forth on Apple Intelligence and The Vision Pro, of which Enjeti was an early buyer. Hit play for a fun, thought provoking discussion on tech's high stakes gamble.

Mark Zuckerberg sent shockwaves around the world when Meta announced the end of its fact-checking program in the U.S. on its platforms Facebook, Instagram, and Threads. Critics lamented the potential for more mis/disinformation online while proponents (especially conservatives) rejoiced, as they saw the decision as a rollback of political censorship and viewpoint discrimination. Beneath the hot takes lie bigger questions around who should control what we see online. Should critical decisions around content moderation that affect billions of users be left to the whims of Big Tech CEOs? If not, is government intervention any better—and could it even clear First Amendment hurdles? What if there is a third option between CEO decrees and government intrusion?Enter middleware: third-party software that sits between users and platforms, potentially offering a "third way" beyond what otherwise appears as a binary choice between. Middleware holds the potential to enable users to select different forms of curation on social media by third-parties—anyone from your local church to news outlets to political organizations. Could this technology put power back in the hands of users while addressing concerns about bias, misinformation, harassment, hate speech, and polarization?Joining us are Luke Hogg, Director of Technology Policy at FAI, and Renee DiResta, Georgetown University professor and author of "Invisible Rulers: The People Who Turned Lies Into Reality." They break down their new paper, “Shaping the Future of Social Media with Middleware,”  on and explore whether this emerging technology could reshape our social media landscape for the better. 

At Trump's second inauguration, one of the biggest stories, if not the biggest, was the front-row presence of Big Tech CEOs like Google's Sundar Pichai and Meta's Mark Zuckerberg—placed even ahead of Cabinet members. As the plum seating signaled a striking shift in Silicon Valley's relationship with Washington, just 24 hours later, the administration announced Stargate, a $500 billion partnership with OpenAI, Oracle, and other tech giants to build AI infrastructure across America.But beneath the spectacle of billionaire CEOs at state functions lies a deeper question about the "Little Tech" movement—startups and smaller companies pushing for open standards, fair competition rules, and the right to innovate without being crushed by either regulatory costs or Big Tech copycats. As China pours resources into AI and semiconductors, American tech policy faces competing pressures: Trump promises business-friendly deregulation while potentially expanding export controls and antitrust enforcement against the very tech giants courting his favor.To explore this complex new paradigm, Evan and FAI Senior Fellow Jon Askonas are joined by Garry Tan, CEO of Y Combinator, the startup accelerator behind Airbnb, DoorDash, and other alumni. As both a successful founder and venture capitalist, Tan discusses what policies could help startups thrive without dipping into overregulation, and whether Silicon Valley's traditionally progressive culture can adapt to Trump's tech alliances.

NewsGuard, a for-profit company rating news outlets' credibility, is accused of being part of a broader censorship cartel, using its ratings and advertising partnerships to censor targeted outlets. The FCC plans to take broad actions to restore First Amendment rights, potentially fining companies or bringing them before Congress for shadowbanning or other forms of censorship. The rise of internet censorship by big tech companies is negatively impacting content creators and free speech, prompting a call for regulatory changes and the exploration of alternative platforms. The Biden Administration and government entities pressured social media platforms to censor information, including removing posts and labeling entire websites as untrustworthy or high-risk to suppress certain viewpoints. YouTube allegedly shadowbanned conservative channels before the 2020 election, including a 500K+ subscriber channel, with traffic restored post-election, suggesting audience overlap as the reason. Websites faced pressure from advertising agencies in 2020-2021 to remove content deemed misinformation or wrong think about topics like guns, vaccines, and mask mandates, risking ad revenue loss if non-compliant. 00:00 New FCC chairman Brandan Carr could reshape tech regulations, as social media censorship impacts content creators, highlighting the need for diverse revenue sources. 03:12 Brendan Carr criticizes big tech censorship and government pressure, highlighting the impact of misinformation audits and content moderation on online discourse. 06:35 Big Tech CEOs are accused of contributing to censorship through fact-checking practices, with companies like Google and Facebook facing pressure to limit free speech and control information flow. 11:15 Google's control over information and partnerships with censorship entities threaten free speech and democracy, necessitating a reclaiming of rights by Americans. 16:09 Internet censorship is harming content creators, especially conservatives, with significant drops in YouTube traffic linked to algorithm changes. 19:08 Internet censorship is prompting users to explore alternative platforms, raising concerns about bias and financial impacts on major sites like YouTube and Twitch. 22:08 Censorship by tech companies has sparked public backlash and heightened awareness against media control in America. 24:30 Join clownfishminus.com for exclusive content, merch discounts, and community engagement.

The Senate Judiciary Committee met with CEOs like Mark Zuckerberg with accusations that their companies are actively causing harm to children, and they weren't happy with the response. Plus, a judge tells Elon Musk that he will not be getting the massive compensation package promised to him by Tesla's board of directors. And TikTok says goodbye to Taylor Swift's music (and all other UMG tracks). Plus more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, Mark Zuckerberg performatively apologized at a congressional hearing for the harm social media does to kids. But the real answer to preventing that harm isn't yelling at Big Tech CEOs, it's parents taking responsibility for their children. Also, James O Keefe catches another white house official on camera making damning confessions. A man is charged with committing a hate crime against satan. And officials in DC are trying to figure out why violence and crime is rising among kids in the city. I have a few answers to that question. Ep.1306 - - -  DailyWire+:   Watch Lady Ballers, the Most Triggering Movie in America here: https://bit.ly/3R1dM5b Become a DailyWire+ member to gain access to movies, shows, documentaries, kids entertainment and more: https://utm.io/ueMfc Get your Matt Walsh flannel here: https://bit.ly/3EbNwyj  - - -  Today's Sponsors: Legacybox - Shop Legacybox with my exclusive discount: https://www.legacybox.com/Matt  Hillsdale - Enroll for FREE today at https://www.hillsdale.edu/walsh   Birch Gold - Text "WALSH" to 989898, or go to https://birchgold.com/Walsh, for your no-cost, no-obligation, FREE information kit.  - - - Socials: Follow on Twitter: https://bit.ly/3Rv1VeF Follow on Instagram: https://bit.ly/3KZC3oA Follow on Facebook: https://bit.ly/3eBKjiA Subscribe on YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RQp4rs

Jason Fyk has been fighting against Big Tech censorship for the last six years. First he went after Facebook, then he went after the government. Unfortunately, the judges he's faced have not enforced the United States Constitution, but instead have redefined words and terminology in order to provide cover for these Big Tech companies. One of the things that we discussed was Section 230. The dirty little secret is that the Big Tech CEOs want government regulation, because they're in cahoots with the government and can help to set the rules to benefit them. However, what most people don't realize is that Section 230 is not how it has been explained to you… and all we need right now is just to enforce the letter of the law.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: According to reports, the Justice Department will not charge Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) with any crimes. The New York Times' Glenn Thrush writes: “In 2021, federal prosecutors began examining whether Mr. Gaetz…broke federal sex-trafficking laws, focusing on his relationships with women recruited online for sex, and whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old girl.” But hasn't the damage to Rep. Gaetz's reputation already been done? On Wednesday, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) announced that he has subpoenaed the CEOs of Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft. He explained that the House Judiciary Committee reached out to the aforementioned companies late last year, but they did not comply with requests. In his letter, Rep. Jordan writes, “Twitter recently set a benchmark for how transparent Big Tech companies can be about interactions with government over censorship. The Twitter Files have exposed how Big Tech and the federal government have worked hand in hand in ways that undermine First Amendment principles.” On Tuesday night, U.S. Senators took part in a classified briefing with Biden Administration officials regarding the mysterious flying objects that have been shot down by U.S. fighter jets over the last week. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) told reporters that “95% of what was discussed could be made public.” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) has introduced legislation that would create a social media minimum age requirement of 16-years-old for users—explaining that “big tech” companies are neglecting to protect children.

On October 3, 2021, Frances Haugen—the so-called Facebook whistleblower—appeared on 60 Minutes to detail her time with the social media giant, as well as the content of the thousands of internal documents that reveal, according to her, the "conflicts of interest between what was good for the public and what was good for Facebook.” Two days later, she was testifying before Congress, who had hauled Big Tech CEOs like Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, Twitter's Jack Dorsey, Google's Sundar Pichai, and others before them at least a half-dozen times in recent years.The conventional wisdom is that Big Tech and social media platforms like Facebook are a threat: to our way of life, to our democracy, and even to our happiness and our well-being.But is this threat real or just moral panic? Today, Acton senior research fellow Michael Matheson Miller talks with Robby Soave, a senior editor at Reason and author of the new book Tech Panic: Why We Shouldn't Fear Facebook and the Future. In the book, and in this interview, Soave examines the recent kneejerk calls to regulate Big Tech from both sides of the aisle. He argues that we should balance our concerns about Big Tech with the consequences of altering the ecosystem that allowed tech to get big in the first place, cautioning us to at least ask the question, “Are we sure we really want to do this?”Subscribe to Acton Line, Acton Unwind, & Acton Vault Tech Panic: Why We Shouldn't Fear Facebook and the Future | Robby SoaveWhistleblower: Facebook is misleading the public on progress against hate speech, violence, misinformation | 60 MinutesDigital Contagion: 10 Steps to Protect your Family & Business from Intrusion, Cancel Culture, and Surveillance Capitalism | Michael Matheson MillerScott Lincicome on Section 230 and social media | Acton LineHold internet companies responsible for content on their platforms, not just the government | Paul Clyde, Acton InstituteActon's 31st Annual Dinner See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

When you hear the words, "a Doctor Who monster created to succeed the Daleks," you know the chances of a train wreck are high. Sometimes you get something so bad it's good (hello, Mechanoids!), and sometimes you get The Krotons. The Krotons don't always attempt to influence primitive civilizations, but when they do, they're obsessed with finding high brains — which makes them a lot like today's Big Tech CEOs, just made of crystal and with a propensity to "disperse" those who don't meet the bar. They might be hard to take seriously, but at least Patrick Troughton is here to reassure us that it's OK to laugh.

Highlights:“Thirty-six states, more than half of the nation, are suing Google in an antitrust case challenging the company's control over its Android app store. The complaint centers on Google's 30% commission fee on all app purchases and in order to protect that racket, Google has employed a number of anti-competitive tactics to diminish competition in Android app distribution.”“This announcement about the 36 states' lawsuit, of course, comes on the heels of President Trump's huge announcement of a class-action lawsuit against Big Tech CEOs.”“What CNN, NY Times, and other mainstream media outlets simply don't get when they diminished Trump's lawsuit as a publicity stunt, is that this isn't about Trump. This is about techlash.”“According to the latest Gallup poll, those who view BigTech positively has fallen from 46% in August of 2019 to just 34% today.”“The massive surge in techlash frankly could care less at this point whether the lawsuits are successful or not, they'll just launch another one.

In this hour, Taylor goes over the latest blunders from Biden's visit to Illinois and new Trump audio from his press conference announcing a lawsuit against Big Tech CEOs.

Today's headlines: Congress questioned Big Tech CEOs for 5 hours, Google's new alliance wants to get digital keys, mobile IDs working on Android and Sigma's fp L is a tiny full-frame camera with a 61-megapixel sensor.

This episode features a deep dive into the National Security Agency's (NSA) self-regulatory approach to overseas signals intelligence, or SIGINT. Frequent contributor David Kris takes us into the details of the SIGINT Annex that governs NSA's collections outside the U.S. It turns out to be a surprising amount of fun as we stop to examine the SIGINT turf wars of the 1940s, the intelligence scandals of the 1970s, and how they shaped NSA's corporate culture. In the news roundup, Bruce Schneier and I review the privacy commissioner's determination that Clearview artificial intelligence (AI) violated Canadian privacy law by scraping Canadians' photos from social media. Bruce thinks Clearview had it coming; I'm skeptical, since it appears that pretty much everyone has been scraping public face data for their machine learning collections for years. David Kris explains why a sleepy investment review committee with practically no staff is now being compared to a SWAT team. The short answer is “CFIUS.” More and more, Gus Hurwitz and I note, Big Tech CEOs are being treated like comic book supervillains in Washington.  But have they met their match? Sen. Amy Klobuchar is clearly campaigning to be, if not attorney general, then their nemesis. Like Doc Ock, she's throwing punch after punch at Big Tech, not just in antitrust legislation but Section 230 reform as well. We're not done with SolarWinds yet, and Bruce Schneier thinks that's fair. He critiques the company for milking profits from its software niche without reinvesting in security. Gus revives the theme of Big Tech at bay, noting that Australia may start charging Google when it links to Australian news stories and that the new administration seems quite willing to join the rest of the world in imposing more taxes on tech profits. David covers the flap between India and Twitter, which is refusing to follow an Indian order to suppress several Twitter accounts. That's probably, I suggest, because there is insufficient proof that the accounts in question belong to Republicans. IBM seems to be bailing on blockchain, and Bruce thinks it's about time.  In some ways, IBM is the most interesting of tech companies, since it has less of a moat around its business than most and must live by its wits, which are formidable. Bruce offers quantum computing as an example of IBM doing the right things well. Bruce and Gus help me with a preview of an upcoming interview of Nicole Perlroth as we cover an op-ed pulled from her new book. Bruce also offers a quick assessment of the draft report of the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence. The short version: There isn't enough there there. Finally, Gus reminds us that a prophet who predicts the attention economy but then refuses to play by its rules is almost guaranteed to end up as an attention Cassandra, as Michael Goldhaber has.   And more!

On Wednesday July 29th, Big Tech CEOs from Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple appeared before Congress for the first time together to talk about their business practices and make their arguments for why they aren't as powerful as they seem. Our friend Nick Cavazos, who works in I.T. and majors in philosophy, joins us and gives insight into Big Tech and how it affects our lives.

Senator Ted Cruz spends a moment memorializing conservative titan Herman Cain and the lasting impact of his work. Then, Senator Cruz and Michael Knowles react to this shocking (or maybe not so shocking) news straight from the Hill—three out of four of the Big Tech CEOs refused to admit to Congress that China steals from American technology companies. Plus, Senator Cruz responds directly to Mark Cuban questioning his testicular fortitude. Learn more about your ad choices.
