The Broken Internet

The podcast discusses how the current internet design is causing harm by fueling mental health crises, spreading misinformation, breaking down civil discourse, and undermining democratic institutions. The speaker highlights a need to shift power from platforms to individuals, giving control of data back to users and enabling everyone to benefit economically from the data they generate. By focusing on changing the internet's design to prioritize individuals over platforms, a new, healthier digital ecosystem can be created.
