The Power Shift You Didn’t Vote For (S5) S5
The JMOR Tech Talk Show with John C. Morley
Welcome back to The JMOR Tech Talk Show. I’m your host, John C. Morley—Serial Entrepreneur, Engineer, Marketing Specialist, Video Producer, Podcast Host, Coach, Graduate Student, and lifelong learner. Each week, we break down the tech shifts that don’t just change apps—they change power, privacy, and who decides what comes next. This episode is about the quiet decisions happening right now that are reshaping your data, your kids’ lives, your work, and your future—without asking for your vote.
1️⃣ France moving to block kids from social media
Governments are stepping directly into childhood online, testing how much control they should have over young minds.
2️⃣ Google pays millions over “always listening” fears
Smart assistants crossed from convenience into legal risk, and trust is now on trial.
3️⃣ Texas cuts Chinese tech from state systems
Data is no longer just information—it’s treated like critical infrastructure.
4️⃣ Big Tech heads to court over youth addiction
For the first time, platforms may be forced to answer for how they shape young brains.
5️⃣ AI quietly speeds up drug trials
AI isn’t curing diseases yet—but it’s cutting time, and time saves lives.
6️⃣ Grok sparks a global AI crackdown
When AI crosses consent lines, governments stop asking nicely.
7️⃣ TikTok avoids a U.S. ban by locking down data
Ownership mattered less than control—and that’s the new global rule.
8️⃣ Amazon signals more corporate layoffs
It’s not just AI—it’s flattening power and removing layers.
9️⃣ Privacy keeps slipping across systems
Privacy isn’t leaking anymore—it’s being handed over.
🔟 ICE faces a privacy double standard
Sometimes surveillance doesn’t come from hacks—it comes from what’s already public.
1️⃣1️⃣ Rad Power Bikes crashes from billions to millions
The startup boom didn’t cool down—it corrected hard.
1️⃣2️⃣ Microsoft expands massive data centers
AI isn’t abstract—it runs on land, power, and local economies.
1️⃣3️⃣ Shape-shifting robots enter the real world
Robots are getting softer, safer, and built for real environments.
1️⃣4️⃣ AI moves directly into Gmail inboxes
Your email just became an AI workspace—and convenience now comes with a trade-off.
