“Ben Tarnoff: Internet For The People” August 2 – 16, 2022
Technology writer Ben Tarnoff joins a conversation about his book, “Internet for the People: The Fight for Our Digital Future” about how and why the Internet is broken, and how to fix it by deprivatizing, creating an Internet where people, not profit, rule. A solution calls for shrinking the space of the market and diminishing the power of the profit motive. It calls for abolishing the walled gardens of Google, Facebook, and the other giants that dominate our digital lives and developing publicly and cooperatively owned alternatives that encode real democratic control. To build a better internet, we need to change how it is owned and organized.

We’ve delved into the evolution of online culture and communications technologies, and we’ve explored improvisational and collaborative branches of music history. Who can say what we’ll talk about next?
