Chan-Jo Jun ist Fachanwalt für IT-Recht. Seit einigen Jahren klärt er im Internet auf über juristische Sachverhalte, erläutert gesellschaftliche Konsequenzen von Verboten und Gesetzen – und entlarvt „Quatsch Jura“. Er schreckt nicht mal davor zurück, Social-Media-Plattformen zu verklagen. Warum Chan-Jo Jun eigentlich anders heißt, was er beim Geflügelzüchterverein gemacht hat und wie er darauf reagierte, als ihn jemand den "unkoreanischten Koreaner" genannt hat, das erzählt er in diesem Podcast. Er rekapituliert, warum seine Klage gegen Facebook weltweite Aufmerksamkeit erregte, was er mal in einem Taxi erlebte und wie sein Gefühl war, als er beim Marathon durchs Brandenburger Tor lief.

Meta Platforms (META) is looking to build numerous multi-gigawatt data centers that CEO Mark Zuckerberg says make up a "significant part of the footprint of Manhattan." Marley Kayden says that may not be the only piece of news moving the stock. She points to a report from the New York Times saying Meta is considering abandoning its open-source A.I. model, Behemoth. Tim Biggam offers an example options trade for Meta.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Eric, Jeff, Sheek, Styles and Jadakiss got together in Yonkers to break down The Social Network, the 2010 American biographical drama film portraying the founding of the social networking website Facebook and its founder Mark Zuckerberg, directed by David Fincher, written by Aaron Sorkin, starring Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake, Armie Hammer and Max Minghella. We discuss the impact of social media, what makes "genius," how file sharing changed the music business, what billionaires we trust, if "The Social Network" is the film of our generation, whether it matters that there's creative license in a film like this and much more!

Mark Zuckerberg paga lo mismo por un ingeniero de IA de Apple que Tim Cook por los derechos de la Formula 1. ¿Cuál es la prioridad de Apple?Siguen los cambios en el "Liquid Glass" de las betas de iOS y las reacciones de los usuarios no dan tregua. Hablamos sobre la nueva función de los AirPods Pro que pausa la reproducción al detectar que el usuario se duerme, y consideramos los rumores sobre la hoja de ruta de hardware de Apple para los próximos años, como los posibles nuevos iPad Pro con chip M5 y la llegada de un híbrido HomePod con pantalla. Asimismo, analizamos las especulaciones sobre un nuevo Apple Pencil que podría funcionar sobre papel.Comentamos la sorprendente marcha de Jeff Williams de Apple y las implicaciones que esto podría tener para la sucesión de Tim Cook, dada la posición clave de Williams dentro de la compañía. También abordamos la agresiva estrategia de Meta para fichar talento en inteligencia artificial, ofreciendo contratos multimillonarios a ingenieros de primer nivel, lo que ha generado un calentamiento en el mercado de talento tecnológico. Por último, hacemos un breve repaso a las series de Apple TV+ como "Murderbot", "Slow Horses" y "Foundation", compartiendo nuestras impresiones y novedades.En este episodio, analizamos en profundidad el libro "Apple en China" de Patrick McGee, discutiendo su tesis principal sobre cómo Apple ha transformado el panorama económico y de fabricación en China a lo largo de los años. Comentamos la compleja y profunda codependencia entre Apple, Foxconn y TSMC, y cómo la inversión masiva de Apple no solo impulsó la fabricación global, sino que también contribuyó al surgimiento de competidores chinos al transferir conocimientos técnicos y operativos. También reflexionamos sobre las implicaciones políticas y sociales de esta relación, incluyendo la dura realidad laboral y los desafíos imprevistos con los cambios en el liderazgo chino.

This Day in Legal History: Sedition Act PassedOn this day in legal history, July 14, 1798, the United States Congress passed the Sedition Act, one of the most controversial laws in the nation's early political history. Part of the broader Alien and Sedition Acts, this law made it a crime to publish “any false, scandalous and malicious writing” against the federal government, Congress, or the President with the intent to defame or bring them into disrepute. Ostensibly aimed at quelling foreign influence and internal subversion during the quasi-war with France, the Act was also a clear weapon against domestic political opposition—particularly the Democratic-Republicans led by Thomas Jefferson.Federalist lawmakers, who dominated Congress and the presidency under John Adams, justified the law as necessary for national security. However, it was widely criticized as an assault on First Amendment rights and a means of silencing dissent. The law resulted in the prosecution of several Republican editors and even members of Congress, including Representative Matthew Lyon of Vermont, who was sentenced to four months in jail.The Sedition Act provoked a fierce backlash and spurred Jefferson and James Madison to draft the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions, which introduced the doctrine of nullification—the idea that states could declare federal laws unconstitutional. Public outrage over the Act played a significant role in the Federalists' defeat in the election of 1800 and the subsequent repeal or expiration of most provisions of the Alien and Sedition Acts.The Sedition Act expired on March 3, 1801, the day before Jefferson assumed the presidency. Its legacy remains a cautionary tale about the tension between national security and civil liberties, and it is frequently cited in debates over the limits of free speech in times of political crisis.California tax authorities have flagged over 1,500 high-end vehicles sold by 500 dealerships as likely being registered through Montana LLCs in an attempt to avoid California sales tax and vehicle registration fees. These vehicles—worth more than $300 million collectively—are tied to a long-running strategy used by buyers of luxury assets like exotic cars, yachts, and RVs to exploit Montana's zero percent sales tax and minimal registration costs. Dealers and buyers now face possible penalties, audits, and investigations as California intensifies enforcement.The scheme works like this: a buyer sets up a Montana LLC, purchases and registers the vehicle under that entity, and keeps the car out-of-state on paper—even if it's garaged and driven daily in a state like California. That regulatory fiction is precisely what states are cracking down on. Bloomberg Tax recently highlighted the scale of the problem, noting that more than 600,000 vehicles are likely registered in Montana but used elsewhere, costing states billions annually in uncollected taxes.Montana LLCs have become a go-to workaround for the wealthy looking to sidestep their home-state tax obligations. While technically legal under Montana law, when the vehicle is used in another state without proper registration or tax payment, it becomes a form of tax evasion. States like Illinois and Utah are following California's lead, passing laws to “look through” LLCs and hold in-state beneficial owners accountable.This isn't just a niche tax dodge—it's a broader challenge to state tax enforcement. As wealthier individuals increasingly exploit differences between state tax codes, it's prompting legal reforms and inter-agency cooperation to close loopholes once thought too obscure or dispersed to address. California's latest enforcement push suggests these Montana LLC schemes are no longer flying under the radar—and that other states may soon follow with penalties and structural reforms of their own.California Finds 1,500 Vehicles Linked to Montana Tax SheltersNearly two-thirds of the U.S. Department of Justice's Federal Programs Branch—the unit charged with defending Trump administration policies in court—has resigned or announced plans to leave since Donald Trump's reelection. Out of roughly 110 attorneys, 69 have exited, according to a list reviewed by Reuters. The exodus includes nearly half the section's supervisors and is far greater than typical turnover seen in prior administrations. While the Trump administration maintains its legal actions are within constitutional bounds, current and former DOJ lawyers cite an overwhelming workload and ethical concerns as key drivers of the departures.Many career lawyers reportedly struggled to defend policies they saw as legally dubious or procedurally flawed, including efforts to revoke birthright citizenship and claw back federal funding from universities. Several feared they'd be pressured to make misleading or unethical arguments in court. In some cases, lawyers were expected to defend executive orders with minimal input from the agencies involved. A recent whistleblower complaint even alleged retaliation against a supervisor who refused to make unsupportable claims in immigration cases.Despite the mass departures, the Trump administration continues to rely heavily on the unit as it seeks to expand executive power following favorable Supreme Court rulings. The DOJ has reassigned attorneys from other divisions, brought in over a dozen political appointees, and exempted the unit from the federal hiring freeze to keep up with litigation demands. Critics argue the changes undermine DOJ independence, while supporters claim the administration is merely ensuring its policies get a fair defense in court.Two-thirds of the DOJ unit defending Trump policies in court have quit | ReutersAn $8 billion trial kicks off this week in Delaware where Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and several current and former Facebook leaders are accused by shareholders of knowingly violating a 2012 FTC consent decree aimed at protecting user privacy. The lawsuit stems from the 2018 revelation that Cambridge Analytica accessed data from millions of Facebook users without their consent, ultimately leading to billions in fines and costs for Meta—including a $5 billion penalty from the FTC in 2019. Shareholders, including union pension funds like California's State Teachers' Retirement System, want Zuckerberg and others to reimburse the company, alleging they operated Facebook as a law-breaking enterprise.Defendants in the case include Sheryl Sandberg, Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel, and Reed Hastings. While Meta itself is not a defendant, the case focuses on the board's alleged failure to oversee privacy practices and enforce the 2012 agreement. The plaintiffs must prove what legal experts call the most difficult claim in corporate law: a total failure of oversight by directors. Delaware law gives leeway for poor business decisions—but not illegal ones, even if they're profitable.Zuckerberg is expected to testify, and plaintiffs argue he personally directed deceptive privacy practices and tried to offload stock ahead of the Cambridge Analytica scandal to avoid losses, allegedly netting $1 billion. Defendants deny wrongdoing, claiming the company took privacy seriously by investing in compliance and being deceived by Cambridge Analytica.Meta investors, Zuckerberg to square off at $8 billion trial over alleged privacy violations | Reuters This is a public episode.

Het zakelijk imperium van Elon Musk raakt steeds meer met elkaar vermengd. Eerst ging X samen met start-up xAI, afgelopen weekend investeerde zijn SpaceX ineens 2 miljard dollar in xAI. Maar hij wil nóg verdergaan. Tesla-aandeelhouders moet stemmen over een investering in xAI. Beleggers moeten dus beslissen of ze geld willen uitgeven aan zijn privébedrijf. Daar staan we deze aflevering bij stil. Is het wel wenselijk dat beleggers geld stoppen in een onderneming van de topman? En gaat xAI Tesla ook echt verder helpen? Van de rijkste man van de wereld, door naar de rijkste van Frankrijk. Of nou ja, dat was hij. Bernard Arnault is namelijk zijn koppositie kwijt. De baas va LVMH duikelt op het rijkenlijstje, omdat het aandeel van LVMH het niet goed doet. Hermes doet dat wél. Je hoort waarom dat is.Hoor je ook meer over de heffingen van Trump. Europa wordt door hem eerder bestookt met torenhoge heffingen, dan een massamoordenaar.

Tyler Ellegard says Meta Platforms (META) is a buy even as it trades just off all-time highs. He sees the Mag 7 giant's ad revenue as a prime growth driver that will continue to accelerate over the next couple of years. Tyler adds that CEO Mark Zuckerberg's efforts to "poach" A.I. talent can pay off if Meta becomes a "first mover" in the space.

De Amerikaanse belastingbetaler is in één klap de grootste aandeelhouder van een beursbedrijf. Het gaat om MP Materials, een bedrijf dat zeldzame aardmetalen wint en verwerkt. Het aandeel schoot gister meer dan 50 procent omhoog, nadat bleek dat het Amerikaanse ministerie van Defensie zich inkocht. Deze aflevering kijken we wat de Amerikanen precies met die aankoop willen, maar vooral ook wat volgt? Wat een ding is zeker, dit is een ongekende stap. Gaat de regering nog meer aandelen van beursbedrijven opkopen? Verder kijken we naar wéér een nieuw rondje tarieven van Trump. Hij bestookt nu de buurman, Canada. En zegt dat er een standaardtarief komt voor veel andere landen. Toch lijkt het beleggers allemaal niet meer te boeien. Zijn ze tarieven-moe? Ook bereiden we je voor op het cijferseizoen, dat ASML aanstaande woensdag in ons land aftrapt. Verder in deze aflevering: Amazon stopt nóg meer in Anthropic. Het bedrijf achter de AI-bot Claude.

I denne sidste AI Denmark inden sommerferien skal vi lidt op i perspektiv, og selvom vi stadig har blikket rettet mod den hjemlige andedam, så går turen over Atlanten og videre over hele USA til Silicon Valley.Silicon Valley er stadig – på godt og ondt – dér hvor en meget stor del af vores gennemdigitaliserede hverdag bliver skabt og styret, og målt på økonomi og indflydelse er techbranchen jo på størrelse med et mellemstort land.Det er også en af årsagerne til, at Danmark for cirka 8 år siden valgte at etablere en tech-ambassade i San Francisco, i håbet om at kunne interagere mere direkte med de gigantiske firmaer.I denne episode har jeg besøg af Claus Mackinney-Valentin fra den danske techambassade til en slags sommersamtale med fokus på AI i Silicon Valley set med danske briller, ikke mindst i lyset af de senere års geopolitiske omvæltninger.LINKSSIDEN SIDSTMark Zuckerberg annoncerer sin AI super-gruppe | The VergeAlle dem Mark Zuckerberg har ansat indtil videre | WiredZuckerberg tilbyder top-løn til topfolk | WiredSam Altman kritiserer Metas jagt på AI-folk | WiredAnthropic vinder i del af retssag — men er stadig i problemer for at stjæle bøger | The VergeAnthropic ødelagde millioner af trykte bøger for at skaffe træningsdata | Ars TechnicaCloudflare vil nu blokere AI-crawlere som standard | The VergeSenatet dropper plan om at forbyde AI-regulering | The VergeCaroline Stage vil bremse EU's AI-lovgivning | Version2SILICON VALLEYClaus Mackinney-Valentin på LinkedInClaus Mackinney-Valentin, Senior AI & Tech-rådgiver i Silicon ValleyTechambassadørens kontorAI 2027 - En forskningsbaseret AI-scenarieprognoseEt problem til 100 billioner dollars | Exponential View

If you're someone who thinks social media is super evil and Facebook heavily influenced the 2016 election and now most of the world's leaders are in the pocket of Mark Zuckerburg… you need to take your tinfoil hat off and read the TRUTH. Because it will confirm all those things. Sarah Wynn-Williams is a lawyer and one of the early members of Facebook's global policy team and she's even more horrified about all that stuff than you are.

In this episode, Scott Becker highlights Mark Zuckerberg's bold strategy of hiring top AI talent at premium cost to drive Meta's resurgence.
Martin Mawyer is president of Christian Action Network. Martin began his career as a journalist for the Religion Today news syndicate and as the Washington news correspondent for Moody Monthly magazine. In 1990 he founded the Christian Action Network. As Jim opened this edition of Crosstalk, he noted a just-released Newsmax story that someone used Artificial Intelligence-powered software to imitate Secretary of State Marco Rubio's voice and writing style in contacting foreign ministers, a U.S. governor and a member of Congress. It's thought that the offender was likely attempting to manipulate powerful government officials with the goal of gaining access to information or accounts. So exactly where is Artificial Intelligence (AI) going and into whose hands is it falling? If you haven't been concerned up to this point, consider that just recently Mark Zuckerberg announced the creation of META Super Intelligence Labs to propel the advancement from Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI). ASI can hack into any system in existence such as water treatment systems. It can also break codes or even come up with biological weapons. However, what's even more concerning is his desire to make this open source. This means that anyone would have access to this super intelligence machine, and if they choose to, they could remove any human life parameters that are part of it in order to pursue unlawful goals.
On today's show, Elon Musk announces he is starting a new political party in America. Mark Zuckerberg's hiring streak continues by adding one of Apple's top AI talents, and we recap what happened with the flooding in Central Texas and if cloud seeding played a role in it.

Alles dat fout kon gaan, ging fout tijdens de overname van Just Eat Takeaway. Dat vindt de Vereniging van Effectenbezitters. Aandeelhouders hebben vandaag dan wel zo goed als zeker ingestemd met een overname (door Prosus), toch zit het de beleggersvereniging niet lekker. En dat komt door de rol van Jitse Groen. Ze snappen niet waarom oprichter Jitse Groen mocht onderhandelen over de verkoop van zijn bedrijf. En nog belangrijker: het is totaal niet duidelijk hoeveel geld hij meekrijgt. Groen krijgt een bonus, maar zelf kan hij daar niks over vertellen. Deze aflevering hebben we het over de overnamesoap - en wat de toekomst van Just Eat wordt onder vleugels bij Prosus.Verder gaat het over een vier-letterig probleem voor Apple en dat is Meta. Topman Mark Zuckerberg heeft een belangrijk werknemers weggekaapt en de vrees is dat nu een leegloop dreigt bij Apple. Ook gaat het over de verlengde deadline voor de EU. Ze hebben uitstel gekregen van Trump. Of hebben ze het gevraagd?De vraag is ook of Weight Watchers is gered. Het ging in mei failiet, maar zegt dat ze hun comeback willen maken.

So what, exactly, is the AI wedge? According to Ewan Morrison, author of For Emma, an already acclaimed novel about our dystopian biotech future, it means a “V-shaped” force that starts small but gradually drives people apart, replacing human connection with technological mediation."It starts off really small. You end up with something like internet dating... it begins as a novelty and then people become dependent on it," Morrison explains. What seemed harmless in the 1990s has evolved to the point where 60-70% of people now use dating apps, with younger generations saying they "don't wanna meet anyone outside of using an app because they don't trust anyone." But the wedge doesn't stop there. The final stage, Morrison warns, is the replacement of the humans completely by AI friends, partners, even therapists. The metaphor captures how each technological "solution" creates new dependencies while eroding our capacity for direct human interaction. As Morrison puts it, technology "removes that sort of tactile sense that humorous, trusting, improvisatory, make do sense that we have when we deal face to face with people." Morrison notes that "for some, it's easier. It's easier to have an AI friend because it's always going to tell you, you're wonderful." This highlights how the wedge works not just through dependency, but through the seductive appeal of artificial relationships that never require the messy, challenging work of real human connection.1. AI is Pure Hype, Not a Real Revolution"I think you just have to break it down and look at AI from a PR perspective and see what we were promised. We were promised human level AI by Marvin Minsky in 1970... And I think we're seeing the same cycle happening again."Morrison argues we're experiencing the third "AI winter" - a pattern of overpromising and eventual collapse that's repeated since the 1970s.2. The AI Wedge Drives Human Separation"They're a bit like a wedge, like a V-shaped wedge... So it starts off really small... and then the final stage of that wedge is the replacement of the humans completely by Mark Zuckerberg's AI friends, by AI partners, AI therapists, these human surrogates."Technology gradually separates us from authentic human connection through a three-stage process: novelty, dependency, replacement.3. Neuralink Represents Dangerous Human Experimentation"When it's a dirty operating table with surgical glue being squeezed into your skull as electronic treads have shaken themselves loose from deep in your brain... then it starts to become a different story entirely."Morrison warns that Silicon Valley's "move fast and break things" mentality becomes morally problematic when applied to human bodies and brains.4. We Shouldn't Ask AI Life's Big Questions"The tragedy that I'm trying to put forward in the book is that we shouldn't give that big question to computers to answer. We shouldn't ask AI, why are we alive?"His novel For Emma explores the danger of outsourcing fundamental human questions about meaning and purpose to artificial intelligence.5. The Utilitarian vs. Romantic Struggle Continues"We're never gonna solve this, but what will happen will be there will be periods in history where one side takes dominance over the other... And now we are seeing the return of the utilitarian mindset once again with the new technologies enabled by AI."Morrison sees current tech development as part of a historical cycle between utilitarian planning (Bentham-style) and romantic individualism, with AI representing a new form of surveillance society.I've know Morrison for many years and generally share his take on Big Tech. But I differ on his view about what he calls the coming 3rd “AI winter”. There's too much capital and technology now to imagine this kind of sharp freeze on the AI economy. For better or worse, this thing is happening now. The threshold has been crossed. It's already radically changing the nature of education and work. And we are still in the earliest chapters of the revolution. That AI wedge is going to get seriously painful. Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Send us fan responses! What if your birth certificate isn't just a record of your birth, but a powerful commercial instrument that defines your relationship with money, taxes, and even your own identity? Dr. Don Kalam, with his background in business and law, offers a provocative reframing of American society that challenges our fundamental understanding of how the system works—and who it works for.Kalam presents the United States not primarily as a democracy, but as a republic designed to foster entrepreneurship as the default path to prosperity. The birth certificate, printed on bank note paper, creates what he calls a "United States person"—a commercial entity separate from your natural self. Most Americans unknowingly merge these two identities, while the wealthy maintain rigorous separation, allowing them to control vast assets without directly owning them.This perspective illuminates why figures like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg establish foundations that receive profits from their companies—embodying Kalam's central wealth philosophy: "Own nothing, control everything." By operating through trusts and using Employer Identification Numbers rather than Social Security Numbers, the financially savvy create protective barriers between personal and business liabilities while practicing legal tax avoidance.The implications extend beyond personal finance into education and employment. Kalam suggests conventional schooling predominantly produces employees rather than entrepreneurs, a system he claims was deliberately designed by industrial magnates. As automation accelerates, intelligence (creating systems) trumps skill (performing tasks), making entrepreneurial thinking increasingly essential for financial security.Whether you find Kalam's interpretations revolutionary or controversial, his framework offers a coherent explanation for the persistence of wealth inequality and provides actionable strategies for rethinking your relationship with commercial systems. The question remains: what might change if this supposedly elite knowledge became widely understood and implemented across society?Dive into local law libraries, study contracts, understand the constitutional protections for private agreements, and consider whether strategic application of these principles might transform your financial future. The rules of the game may be more negotiable than you've been led to believe.In "United States Of Pimpin'," Don Kilam shares his perceptions from his street culture to explain the corporate world in a way that may feel uncomfortable yet brutally honest. He outlines ten rules from the "pimp game" alongside ten principles that apply to society and governance. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9QHGRGS FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD - DON KILAMGO GET HIS BOOK ON AMAZON NOW! https://www.amazon.com/Million-Dollars-Worth-Game-Kilam/dp/B09HQZNRB9 https://www.amazon.com/Cant-Touch-This-Diplomatic-Immunity/dp/B09X1FXMNQSupport the showhttps://donkilam.com
In this special episode, my friend—and fan-favorite guest—Dr. Peter Attia takes the mic as guest host. Peter sits down with legendary trader John Arnold, widely considered the greatest energy trader of all time.
