Skepticism and Consumerism in the Digital Age
This chapter explores the skepticism surrounding information technology, using the example of LifeLock and its failures in protecting personal data. It also delves into the implications of sharing genetic information with companies like 23andMe and the financial dynamics of Infowars, particularly its marketing strategies and the intersection of conspiracy theories and consumerism. The conversation humorously contemplates the potential acquisition of Infowars while reflecting on its influence on right-wing ideologies and the cultural landscape of America.
