Reviews

4.3 out of 5 stars from 1.2k ratings
  • Best reporting on the rise of the far right, online disinformation and the attack on free speech

    Have followed Taylor’s work since I read Extremely Online (which is great) but never would have thought she would be my favourite source on the rise of the far right, the latest trends in disinformation campaigns and the attack on free speech one day. But here we are. Highly recommended!

  • Yikes

    The click bait-y wired article is my final straw, used to love this show but seems like she’s gone off the deep end. Taylor is not a real journalist and is a total hypocrite.

  • What’s with the four loco advertisement disguised as an episode?

    I’m typically interested in Taylor’s work but the four loco episode really turned me off. I know you’ll have to get paid but show horning that in as an episode was kind of gross.

The Shocking Plan to Kill Online Privacy: A VPN Ban Will Break the Web
Q: What sort of campaign are you guys launching to protect access to this technology?
We are organizing to raise awareness to preclude lawmakers from considering VPN bans through petitions and social media activism.
The Shocking Plan to Kill Online Privacy: A VPN Ban Will Break the Web
Q: When do you think people should consider getting VPNs?
It's important to think about this the same way that we think about using any other privacy tool, like Signal, and the more people use it, the more it becomes normalized.
The Truth About Nepal’s Gen Z Uprising
Q: So basically, the government doubled down on this censorship campaign, where they didn't lift the ban on social media, even after these children were killed. And so then the youth went even further and revolted, rightfully so.
Yes, the youth reacted with further protests and violence after the government's inaction against their demands for accountability.
The Truth About Nepal’s Gen Z Uprising
Q: What instigated the shooting of these students? Like, how did that come about?
The police launched an attack on youth during peaceful protests; there were no justifiable reasons for their violent response.
The Truth About Nepal’s Gen Z Uprising
Q: Can you start by explaining what is the origins of all of the protests that are happening right now, especially with Gen Z? How did all of this start?
Not because of social media ban, but social media ban triggered it. The campaign was launched against corruption.
