Season 2 Episode 500
This week, Ron Steslow and Katherine Mangu-Ward (Editor in Chief of Reason) examine some major current developments through a libertarian lens, focusing on negative liberties, free expression, and privacy.
They discuss the threats to privacy and free expression from age-verification laws to "misinformation" regulation to the battle over values on the Internet.
Then, in Politicology+ they discuss “surveillance pricing,” the role of government in data collection, the third-party doctrine that allows the government to buy personal data, and the marriage of corporate and state centralized power.
