Stolen Likes Acknowledgement feat. Cory Doctorow

Blogger, information freedom activist, and sci-fi writer Cory Doctorow joins the gang to discuss the outcome of US anti trust hearings, what's so empty about the idea of "surveillance capitalism, and a start up that was genuinely conceived of by a precocious nine year old.

Also, the UK government rolled out an RPG character maker to get everyone back employed during the pandemic, so this podcast is brought to you by a sports agent, a hotel porter, and three boxers!
