A conversation with the author of ‘Enshittification’

“The consolidation of power into unaccountable corporate hands is an existential risk.”

We talk with Cory Doctorow, who came up with the term "enshittification" to describe what happens when power is consolidated into unaccountable corporate hands. We go from social media, to climate change, to captured regulators, to anti-trust laws and the lack of enforcement of them. An insightful and thought-provoking interview.
