On this week's pod, we're joined by Ed Ongweso (@bigblackjacobin) from the very good podcast This Machine Kills (@machinekillspod) to talk about why certain rich people who love evolutionary psychology are obsessed with designing high IQ babies whose sole purpose is to design apps for your various delivery and content streaming services. We then talk about the former British deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg - now a PR guy at Facebook- who sent out a very long memo to Facebook users telling them that if they, or their loved ones, get radicalised on the platform, it's their own fault. How does Clegg suggest people stay safe on the world's biggest social media platform? Simple: spend hours learning how Facebook's complicated and stupid User Interface works, and give more of your data to them for highly personalised ad curation. Great!
