Off Script Hey! Radio

In this discussion with Laura and Hey! founder Josh Nesbitt, we’ll cover technologies that improve our everyday lives as well as powering online movements, and how those same technologies can be used against us. Over the past few years, Laura has invested her time fighting for the regulation of surveillance capitalism, while building alternatives in her work for the Small Technology Foundation. In today’s world, activism increasingly relies on technology, making now a more important time than ever to discuss how technology can be used quickly and safely to spread facts and support action.

I'm excited to welcome James Hall to the first episode of Off Script as we explore a favourite topic of mine, "Wasn't the web better 10 years ago?". James is a good friend who I've known for many years. We've have had plenty of conversations about the state of web technology as we've progressed through our careers and during this episode James gives a good insight into how web technologies have changed over the years.

What has changed with the web compared to 10 years ago?
