The federal government is attempting to ban or force ByteDance to sell TikTok. Does the executive order really have technical implications or is this politically and economically motivated instead? Find out how the technical details of TikTok and their data collection (peak the first episode on data from season 1) are similar to those utilized by American big tech. Also, there's definitely a work-around should the app be "banned" in the U.S. so come learn how to get content from different "internet regions" in this episode as I also dive into the greater implications of the ban!

Technology is always changing, even in the toughest of times. Despite the challenges and hurdles 2020 has presented to the world, I want to brighten up the world a little with this season of the Modern Citizen. I explore the possibilities of future tech by rooting my analysis in what is happening now. The federal reserve developments, TikTok ban, what I'll call the great migration of tech jobs all tie into the season finale of "Future of Tech" where I'll discuss where tech could be in 15-30 years time. It's going to be a quite exciting season, so be sure to follow me on Twitter (@HerododusTTV) and Twitch (herododus) for more content and be on the lookout for my upcoming YouTube series (TBA). Thank you all for tuning in and I look forward to having you in future episdoes!
In light of recent events, censorship on social media platforms has become an incredibly hot topic. Should companies be allowed to censor? What is it and why are companies allowed to do it? Why do I keep hearing about this mysterious "Section 230" and what does it actually do or why does it matter? I'll discuss these topics and tie them into the EARN IT act episode from a few weeks ago as I also discussed how big tech protections are under assault and what the greater impact of removing these protections is. Companies won't decrease censorship if we don't protect them, they'll bring it to unprecedented levels. Twitter: https://twitter.com/HerododusTTV, Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/herododus
