Facebook forms part of our digital past and is a titan at present - do they have their future figured out, and how will their actions affect us…?

Hot off the back of a lengthy and revealing interview with Lex Fridman, Mark Zuckerberg’s next moves with Meta, Facebook, and the Metaverse hold immense power over the internet going forward.

For this week’s discussion on privacy, peer pressure and putting tech to humanitarian use, I’m joined once again by my panel of lovely co-hosts, with a substitution this week in Felina’s absence - a friend of the show returning from E2: Mobicia Founder & Developer, Jason Kapadia.

This episode of Disconnected covers:

• Our highlights from Mark Zuckerberg’s recent interview with Lex Fridman
• Facebook’s whistleblower, and her damning findings on the impact of Instagram on teens
• The future of security, fraud and harassment in the Metaverse
• How tech has been used for good in support of Ukraine
• Whether we’re seeing more polarisation now than we did before the proliferation of social media
