Stop Lying, VPNs & Better-Made Algorithms –– Talking Tech w/ Michelle De Mooy, Natasha Duarte


Listen Later

Host Brian Wesolowski brings in Michelle De Mooy to chat about CDT's complaint with the FTC about a popular VPN (Hotspot Shield Free) that we believe isn’t living up to its privacy promises.
Then Brian chat's with Natasha Duarte about a new tool from CDT that helps the developers of algorithms think about the broader social ramifications of the decisions they program, our Digital Decisions Tool (beta).
