How can we reverse the enshittification of digital platforms? With Cory Doctorow Why does every online platform seem to start out great - then slowly turn to garbage? Why do our digital public squares now feel more like corporate malls... or burning trash heaps?  ‘Enshittification' has been word of the year in the UK, USA and Australia. It's been printed in the pages of the FT and declaimed from podiums at the EU. As a word, it captures the feeling of a world that is ever worsening.  Cory Doctorow, the tech and ethics writer who coined the term, argues that enshittification is not a technical glitch, but a technique that every platform - from X to TikTok, Amazon to Apple, has adopted on purpose to maximise profit at the expense of user experience.  In this episode, Doctorow joins Carl Miller to break down what this relentless downward spiral means for democracy, privacy, creativity, and trust, and what can be done to reverse it. Doctorow offers a roadmap for reclaiming a better digital future. From breaking monopolies and restoring interoperability to empowering tech workers and enforcing real regulation, this is a conversation about what's broken, and how we can fix it.

The EU is heavily promoting rail as an alternative to flying and driving, but while the "big" high-speed train projects get a lot of attention, it's often maddeningly difficult to take a regional train across an EU border. Jon Worth has travelled on almost every single rail line in the EU and he has an incredible wealth of knowledge about how cross-border rail could work so much better.The Cross Border Rail Project: https://crossborderrail.trainsforeurope.eu/Jon Worth's personal blog: https://euroblog.jonworth.eu/Jon's Mastodon: https://gruene.social/@jonNot Just Bikes: https://youtube.com/notjustbikesNot Just Bikes Mastodon: https://social.notjustbikes.com/@notjustbikesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tara breaks down the escalating threat of international overreach, from the UN's attempt to impose a global carbon tax to Europe's new digital ID and online censorship regimes. She exposes how American sovereignty and free speech are under pressure, highlights the role of Donald Trump in resisting these moves, and details how foreign bureaucracies like the EU and UK are attempting to regulate and fine U.S.-based platforms such as 4chan, Reddit, and Discord. This episode explores the broader implications for freedom, national security, and the slippery slope toward global governance. Tagline: One world government, one global tax, one step closer to losing our freedoms — who's really in charge?

Tara breaks down the behind-the-scenes dynamics of the Ukraine conflict, revealing how NATO actions undermine peace efforts and escalate violence. She explains why Donald Trump's negotiations with Putin face obstacles not from him, but from European allies eager for war, and why Zelenskyy's role is more symbolic than authoritative. Tara details the covert coordination of bombings, pipeline attacks, and military strikes, showing how the EU and NATO pursue their own agenda while framing Trump's diplomacy as ineffective. This episode exposes the chaotic power struggle shaping the war and its deadly consequences for civilians.

Tara exposes the rising threats to American sovereignty, free speech, and security, from UN taxation schemes and global carbon taxes to European digital censorship laws targeting U.S. websites. She connects these developments to deep state power plays, including the John Bolton indictment and systemic misuse of classified data by elites. The episode examines NATO's unchecked military actions, the exploitation of U.S. equipment, and the obstruction of peace negotiations with Russia. Tara warns that losing the presidency again could mean permanent erosion of Americans' constitutional rights, highlighting how foreign bureaucracies, oligarchs, and political insiders manipulate law and media to consolidate control.

Frankreich hat eine neue Regierung, schon zum zweiten Mal in kurzer Zeit. Zum Auftakt musste sie sich direkt zwei Misstrauensvoten stellen – die für die Regierung gut ausgingen. Die Krise im Land ist aber noch längst nicht vorbei. Und das ist auch ein Problem für Deutschland und die ganze EU, davon ist BR-Politikredakteur und frühere Korrespondent im ARD-Studio Brüssel, Jakob Mayr, überzeugt. In dieser 11KM-Folge erzählt uns Jakob, wie wichtig ein stabiles Frankreich für die ganze Region ist und warum gerade viele EU-Vorhaben daran hängen, dass Frankreich seine innenpolitischen Probleme lösen kann. Und welche Auswirkungen es auf Europa hat, wenn Frankreich in eine noch tiefere Krise gerät. Alle weiteren Nachrichten zu den Entwicklungen in Frankreich findet ihr auf der Themenseite von tagesschau.de: https://www.tagesschau.de/thema/frankreich Die Regierungskrise begann mit den Neuwahlen im vergangenen Sommer.

HEADLINE: China Retaliates Against Dutch Chipmaker Seizure Amid European Fragmentation GUEST NAME:Theresa Fallon SUMMARY: Theresa Fallon discusses China imposing export controls on Nexperia after the Dutch government seized control of the chipmaker, which was owned by China's Wingtech. The Dutch acted due to fears the Chinese owner would strip the technology and equipment, despite Nexperia producing low-quality chips for cars. Fallon notes Europe needs a better chip policy but struggles to speak with one voice, as fragmented policy allows China to drive wedges and weaken the EU. 1966 TIBET

SHOW SCHEDULE 10-15--25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1964 ATLANTIC CITYCONVENTION HALL THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT CONGRESS.... 10-15--25 FIRST HOUR 9-915 HEADLINE: Obamacare Subsidies Trigger Government Shutdown Debate GUEST NAME: Michael Toth SUMMARY: Michael Toth explains that the current government shutdown debate centers on extending two expensive Biden-era Obamacare subsidies. These changes allow individuals earning over 400% of the federal poverty line to receive subsidies and provide 100% coverage for the near-poor. The original Obamacare cross-subsidy structure failed because young, healthy individuals found premiums too high. Toth advocates deregulation, such as allowing insurance companies to charge lower, risk-adjusted rates and enabling single business owners to use Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) for cheaper coverage. 915-930 HEADLINE: Obamacare Subsidies Trigger Government Shutdown Debate GUEST NAME: Michael Toth SUMMARY: Michael Toth explains that the current government shutdown debate centers on extending two expensive Biden-era Obamacare subsidies.

The released prisoners, including potential Hamas leaders, raise concerns about where the organization's center of gravity will shift if they are deported to places like Turkey or Qatar. Schanzer views Turkey, an autocratic supporter of Hamas, as a problematic guarantor of the ceasefire. Internationally, Iran continues its nuclear program despite snapback sanctions, and al-Sharaa is meeting with Putin regarding Russian assets in Syria. 945-1000 HEADLINE: Hamas, Hostages, and Middle East Turmoil: Challenges to the Trump Ceasefire Plan GUEST NAME:Jonathan Schanzer SUMMARY: Jonathan Schanzer discusses complications in the Trump ceasefire plan, including Hamas delaying the return of deceased hostages to maintain leverage.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 HEADLINE: China's Predicament in the Middle East and Domestic Economic Instability GUEST NAME: General Blaine Holt SUMMARY: General Blaine Holt analyzes China's strategic challenges, noting Beijing is concerned about losing access to critical oil and gas resources as US leadership advances the Abraham Accords. China's previous regional deals, like the Saudi-Iran agreement, lacked substance compared to US business commitments. Holt suggests internal pressures might lead Iran toward the Accords. Domestically, China faces accelerating deflation and uncertainty regarding Xi Jinping's leadership due to four competing factions before the fourth plenum. 1015-1030 HEADLINE: South Korea's Descent into Authoritarianism and Persecution of Opposition GUEST NAME: Morse Tan SUMMARY: Morse Tan argues that South Korea is moving toward a "rising communist dictatorship" that oppresses political and religious figures. The indictment of the Unification Church leader and the targeting of the rightful President Yoon exemplify this trend. This persecution serves as an intimidation campaign, demonstrating the regime's disregard for the populace. Tan recommends the US implement active measures, including sanctions relating to a coup d'état and visa sanctions, while also pressing for greater military cooperation. 1030-1045 HEADLINE: Russian War Economy Stalls as Oil Prices Decline and Sanctions Bite GUEST NAME: Michael Bernstam SUMMARY: Michael Bernstam reports that the Russian economy is struggling as global oil prices decline and sanctions increase transportation costs, leading to a $13 to $14 per barrel discount on Russian oil. The "military Keynesianism" economy is exhausted, resulting in staff cuts across industrial sectors. Forecasts indicate contraction in late 2025 and 2026, with the IMF lowering its growth projection for 2025 to 0.6%. Russia is avoiding sanctions by routing payments through neighbors like Kyrgyzstan, who have become major financial hubs. 1045-1100 HEADLINE: Lessons from the Swiss National Bank: Risk-Taking, Exchange Rates, and Fiscal Responsibility GUEST NAME: John Cochrane SUMMARY: Economist John Cochrane analyzes the Swiss National Bank (SNB), noting it differs greatly from the US Federal Reserve by investing heavily in foreign stocks and bonds to manage the Swiss franc's exchange rate. The SNB's massive balance sheet carries risks accepted by Swiss taxpayers and the Cantons. Switzerland, being fiscally responsible (running no budget deficits), finds central banking easier. Cochrane advises that the US Fed should not be buying stocks or venturing into fiscal policy. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: China Retaliates Against Dutch Chipmaker Seizure Amid European Fragmentation GUEST NAME:Theresa Fallon SUMMARY: Theresa Fallon discusses China imposing export controls on Nexperia after the Dutch government seized control of the chipmaker, which was owned by China's Wingtech. The Dutch acted due to fears the Chinese owner would strip the technology and equipment, despite Nexperia producing low-quality chips for cars. Fallon notes Europe needs a better chip policy but struggles to speak with one voice, as fragmented policy allows China to drive wedges and weaken the EU. 1115-1130 HEADLINE: China's Economic Slowdown, Deflation, and the Spectre of Japanification GUEST NAME: Andrew Collier SUMMARY: Andrew Collier discusses China's economic woes, characterized by persistent deflation, with the CPI down 0.3% (6 out of 9 months in the red) and the PPI down for 36 straight months. This environment raises concerns about "Japanification"—a multi-decade slowdown after a property crash. Major structural changes to stimulate consumer consumption are unlikely at the upcoming Communist Party plenum, as the system favors state investment. The property market collapse means foreign investment is leaving, and Collier suggests the economy may not bottom until 2027 or 2028. 1130-1145 HEADLINE: SpaceX Starship Success, Private Space Dominance, and Government Inaction GUEST NAME: Bob Zimmerman SUMMARY: Bob Zimmerman describes SpaceX's Starship Super Heavy 11th test flight as "remarkable," highlighting successful booster reuse and controlled re-entry despite missing tiles. He asserts that private enterprise, like SpaceX, runs the "real American space program" aimed at Mars colonization, outpacing government efforts. In contrast, European projects like Callisto, proposed in 2015, demonstrate government "inaction." JPL is also laying off staff following the cancellation of the Mars sample return project, forcing organizations like Lowell Observatory to seek private funding. 1145-1200 HEADLINE: SpaceX Starship Success, Private Space Dominance, and Government Inaction GUEST NAME: Bob Zimmerman SUMMARY: Bob Zimmerman describes SpaceX's Starship Super Heavy 11th test flight as "remarkable," highlighting successful booster reuse and controlled re-entry despite missing tiles.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 HEADLINE: Commodity Market Trends and UK's Lack of Risk Appetite for AI Innovation GUEST NAME: Simon Constable SUMMARY: Simon Constable notes that data center expansion for AI is increasing prices for copper (up 15%) and steel (up 14%). He points out that the UK lags significantly behind the US in building new AI data centers (170 vs. 5,000+) due to a lack of risk appetite, insufficient wealth, and poor marketing of new ideas. Separately, Constable discusses the collapse of a UK China spying trial because the prior government failed to officially classify China as a national security threat during the alleged offenses. 1215-1230 HEADLINE: Commodity Market Trends and UK's Lack of Risk Appetite for AI Innovation GUEST NAME: Simon Constable SUMMARY: Simon Constable notes that data center expansion for AI is increasing prices for copper (up 15%) and steel (up 14%).

He notes that bills like California's AB 1047, which demands factual accuracy, fundamentally misunderstand AI's generative nature. Imposing vague standards, as seen in New York's RAISE Act, risks chilling innovation and preventing widespread benefits, like affordable legal or therapy tools. Frazier emphasizes that AI policy should be grounded in empirical data rather than speculative fears. 1245-100 AM HEADLINE: AI Regulation Debate: Premature Laws vs. Emerging Norms GUEST NAME: Kevin Frazier SUMMARY: Kevin Frazier critiques the legislative rush to regulate AI, arguing that developing norms might be more effective than premature laws.

Brave has spent a decade building a privacy-first browser that empowers users with tools like ad-blocking and fingerprinting protection, now serving 100 million monthly active users. Security engineer Kyle Den Hartog joins Friederike to unpack the centralization traps in digital identity from email's spam-driven dominance to one-size-fits-all DeFi lending rates and how Brave counters them with BAT's user-rewarding ad model, zero-knowledge personalization, and wallets that act as privacy guardians. Kyle warns of on-chain transparency's risks to consumer behavior, advocates for intent-based "vendor relationship management" advertising, and draws historical lessons on censorship's chilling effects amid rising regulations like EU chat controls. He shares Brave's vision for seamless private payments and user-controlled algorithms to reclaim the open web from Big Tech monopolies.Topics discussed in this episode:IntroductionKyle's background in security and identityWhy identity and privacy matterThe history and centralization of digital identityEmail as a cautionary tale for decentralizationBrave's privacy-first vision and 100M usersBAT: Rewarding users for attentionChallenges and evolutions in Brave's ad modelZero-knowledge for intent-based adsBrave Wallet: Privacy by defaultOn-chain privacy pitfalls and wallet solutionsBrowser wallets vs. built-in securityCensorship, regulations, and history's lessonsFixing social media algorithmsBrave's 5-year visionLinks mentioned in the episode: Kyle Den Hartog, Security Engineer at Brave: https://x.com/PryvitKyleBrave Browser: https://brave.com/Sponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Společná vláda hnutí ANO, SPD a Motoristů začíná v povolebním vyjednávání nabývat jasnějších obrysů. Jaké priority má SPD a v čem by naopak mohla strana ustoupit? Pochopí voliči, že se SPD rozhodla odstoupit od požadavku referenda o vystoupení z Evropské unie a Severoatlantické aliance? Na otázky Tomáše Pancíře odpovídal Tomáš Doležal, nově zvolený poslanec a místopředseda středočeské organizace hnutí SPD.

Since the implementation of EU MDR 2017/745, clinical evidence has become one of the biggest challenges for medical device manufacturers — and a major source of Notified Body nonconformities. This episode breaks down the root causes behind failed submissions and offers a practical framework to fix them: Understanding the shift from MDD to MDR (Article 61 & Annex XIV) Why weak Clinical Evaluation Plans (CEPs) lead to rejection How to generate and analyze real, device-specific clinical data Integrating Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) into your PMS system Maintaining a “living” Clinical Evaluation Report across the device lifecycle

Drohnenwall, Sicherung der Ostflanke, besserer Luftschutz: Europa will bis 2030 verteidigungsbereit sein. Geld ist vorhanden, eine gemeinsame Strategie noch nicht. Nach den Vorstellungen der EU-Kommission soll die Europäische Union bis 2030 deutliche Fortschritte in der Verteidigung erzielen. Vorrang hat zunächst der Aufbau einer europäischen Drohnenabwehr. Erste Systeme sollen bis Ende 2026 einsatzbereit sein. In dieser Folge von »Acht Milliarden« spricht Host Juan Moreno mit dem Rüstungsexperten Dr. Max Mutschler vom Bonn International Center for Conflict Studies. Mutschler warnt, dass Europa trotz der jüngsten Ankündigungen noch immer nicht die richtigen Schritte unternehme, um der russischen Bedrohung wirksam zu begegnen: »Welche Waffensysteme brauchen wir überhaupt, welche Art von Verteidigungspolitik betreiben wir, wie soll unsere Abschreckung angelegt sein – das ist eine Diskussion, die führen wir zu wenig.« Mehr zum Thema: (S+) So will sich die Nato gegen Russlands Drohnen rüsten – von Timo Lehmann: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/deutschland/russland-und-die-nato-verteidigungsminister-planen-schnelle-abwehrmassnahmen-a-f92e6aba-fa0f-407a-9830-67aee2539433 (S+) Alle reden über Drohnen – das müssen Sie wissen – von Frauke Böger, Tobias Großekämper, Dietmar Hipp und Jean-Pierre Ziegler: https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/drohnen-in-deutschland-das-muessen-sie-wissen-a-822a56c7-07e2-4e3f-a573-17c4581c83ee (S+) Pistorius auf Sommerreise: Eine Drohnenshow für den Minister – von Marcel Rosenbach: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/boris-pistorius-auf-sommerreise-eine-drohnenshow-fuer-den-minister-a-cdaf1e86-cddc-450a-908a-5cf3f27756e7 Abonniert »Acht Milliarden«, um die nächste Folge nicht zu verpassen.

Russische Drohnen und Kampfjets haben die Schwächen Europas in der Verteidigung offengelegt. Die EU-Kommission hat nun eine Roadmap mit vier zentralen Projekten vorgelegt. Und: Steigen die Krankenkassenbeiträge trotz Sparpaket? (16:20) Stephanie Rohde

"Too little too late", that's what we're hearing from some farmers who've already ploughed up and planted fields that were being farmed for nature. They say this is because the government took too long to come up with an extension to their environmental funding. A House of Lords Committee says the Windsor Framework, the post-Brexit agreement between the UK and EU that's meant to simplify trade between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is "overwhelmingly complex". Powys Council has just closed a consultation on plans for a new farm policy, which includes the possibility of selling some of its council owned farms. The Council says incomes are too low and maintenance costs too high on some of its farms, but local council farm tenants hope farming will remain a key part of council plans. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Ursula von der Leyen hat den Fahrplan der EU-Kommission zur Luftraum-Verteidigung vorgestellt. Im Mittelpunkt stehen vier Vorzeigeprojekte.

Auf der „Russian Energy Week“ in Moskau hat Ungarns Außenminister Péter Szijjártó die Energiepolitik der EU scharf attackiert. Brüssel gefährde mit dem geplanten Ausstieg aus russischem Gas und Öl die wirtschaftliche Souveränität Europas, sagte er. Budapest werde sich dem Druck nicht beugen, auch wenn Washington und Brüssel auf Distanz pochen.

One of the most delicious and iconic comfort foods in the European Union is moussaka and its many variations, depending on where it is made. Moussaka is cousins with the shepherd's pie, and is a layered eggplant or potato-based dish, often including ground meat, tomato, and a top layer of custardy béchamel sauce. In this same spirit, Chef Rebecca Peizer from The Culinary Institute of America reimagines this iconic dish by using ingredients from all over the European Union. Get the Moussaka recipe here.

The Government is being called on to create a National Wills Register, in line with the policies of some other EU countries. But, what would be the point of this, and would it help to make the retrieval and division of assets easier, or is it just more unnecessary bureaucracy?Joining Seán to discuss this is John Lowe, from MoneyDoctors.ie…

Five years. That's the (significant) difference between male/female life expectancies in human beings. If we'd like to change that (and shouldn't we try?), a new study suggests we look at the animals that reverse this rule, and how they do it.

Russian assets abroad were frozen almost as soon as the country launched its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The idea of seizing those assets and transferring them to Ukraine has been discussed in Western capitals for more than three years, but no significant action has been taken because the assets are protected by sovereign immunity and the West is officially not at war with Russia. Now, with a new administration in the United States and the war of attrition in Ukraine dragging on, European leaders find themselves between a rock—the need to show unwavering support for Ukraine—and a hard place: growing public discontent at having to fund this war from European pockets, when there are billions of euros in Russian money sitting in Western bank accounts.What would the procedure be for embarking on such a complex legal matter? What would setting such a precedent mean for the EU, the euro, and the dollar, and for the countries looking to deposit their reserves in the EU? And does Europe have a plan B if internal divisions can't be overcome?

From the BBC World Service: Greece's government is voting on a bill authorizing private sector employees to work up to 13 hours a day, if both employee and employer agree. Labor unions have called mass strikes in protest, paralyzing the public sector. This comes as Greece faces high debt, rising inflation, and lower wages than much of the European Union. Plus, Japan is holding its biggest-ever technology trade show, centered on integrating AI into our daily lives.

Most conversations about the environment fall into polarized camps — either denial or panic. But living responsibly doesn't have to be political or extreme. In this episode, I take a practical look at what stewardship can look like at home, from how we grow food to how we build, heat, and maintain the spaces we live in.  For our family, that means raising chemical-free produce and livestock, managing soil through regenerative practices, and thinking about proximity so we can walk, bike, and rely less on cars. The result is healthier food, healthier soil and less dependence on the systems that created most of today's environmental problems. We've learned that smaller and simpler often means smarter. A compact, well-insulated home cuts energy use and forces intentional living — less waste, less clutter, and fewer pointless purchases.  The same mindset applies to energy: we combine solar power with conventional fuel instead of pretending one option solves everything. We avoid plastics where possible, use natural materials that last, and work with nature instead of against it. That means embracing weeds where they serve a purpose, using biodiversity instead of monocultures, and letting natural cycles do the work we once tried to control. I also unpack why large-scale mandates, like the EU's plan to ban new fossil-fuel cars by 2035, sound good in theory but overlook the realities of infrastructure, materials, and trade-offs. Real change won't come from legislation alone; it happens when individuals choose differently — when we buy less, waste less, and make each decision with the long view in mind. The goal isn't perfection, it's progress: small, sustainable choices that make our lives and our planet better over time. If that approach resonates with you, share this episode with someone who's trying to live more intentionally. Real stewardship doesn't start with politics — it starts with practice.
