The End of the Influencer and the Last Post ft. Taylor Lorenz

This week, we're joined by Washington Post tech columnist Taylor Lorenz, who has recently published her first book, "Extremely Online: The Untold Story of Fame, Influence, and Power on the Internet". Hussein talks to Taylor about how the idea of fame has changed in the past decade of accelerated online culture, whether an abundance of content means that nobody can really be influential anymore, and whether the attempts by creators and online influencers to unionise against tech platforms may lead to a wider acknowledgement of posting as a form of labour.
