“Over the long run, I view the outcome, one way or the other, more as a matter of technology than politics. From the top-down side, there is the development of Big Data and automated data surveillance capabilities. From the bottom-up side, there is the development of encryption tools and open monetary/information networks. Whichever direction proves more powerful will play a major role in how all sorts of things operate in the decades ahead” – Lyn Alden

I recently had an awesome two-hour marathon chat about P2P social media with BitKarrot from the Nostrovia podcast. We chatted about the challenges and future of decentralized social media, touched on other developments in the space, and sprinkling in some extra chaos and uncertainty on the future of AI. This was a crazy ride through today’s tech and the future its taking us to. Don’t miss this one.
