On this week's bonus , we speak to friend of the show Jathan Sadowski, co-host of the excellent podcast 'This Machine Kills', about Facebook's changing position as a platform, and how, in its attempts to cancel Australia simply for being English, it ended up gaining a more powerful position as an arbiter of information distribution, and probably made Rupert Murdoch even richer in the process.
We also talk about Bitcoin as "weaponised toxic masculinity", and how this suggests that, in absence of knowing what Bitcoin actually is, or what its supposed to do, we're once again resorting to projecting anxiety laden discourse onto it.
