DDK Pod Episode 12 – Porn and Technology: ‘The Butterfly Effect’ by Jon Ronson. This week we discuss a fascinating story - the impact one man, Fabian Thylmann, had on the porn industry in the early 2000s.  Journalist Jon Ronson decided to investigate and write an audio book about the astonishing impact Fabian’s grasp of fledgling internet technologies had at that time. He discovered how Fabian created one of the mightiest digital empires the internet has ever seen without anyone in general society knowing or caring because of the connection to porn.  We discuss the implications and parallels with other more widely known sites and the dangers of incuriousness.  Also covered is our pick of the IT industry news and a few (non-pornographic!) recommendations for our listeners.
 

Note: This Podcast, despite the title, does not contain any pornographic material.
