The Ideological Capture of Tech with Bryan Lunduke
Remember the Free and Open Internet? Tech journalist Bryan Lunduke does, and isn’t afraid to write about its demise one institutional capture at a time. We discuss having our hearts broken by our beloved Internet Archive; the Wikipedia Foundation’s shady dealings; the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s championing “the right for little children to look at porn on the internet”; and Mozilla’s “Feminist decolonial lgbtqia+ climate justice using AI event in Zambia.” Like any good journalists, we ask the tough questions: How do you get your name forbidden by ChatGPT? Who is more banned from conferences, Lunduke or Paley? Are we gonna have a free and open internet, or not? (Answer: not.) Whether you love nerds or merely are one, this entertaining episode will have you wanting to get offline more than ever.Links:The Lunduke Journal: Lunduke.comChatGPT Can Not Say “Bryan Lunduke”: https://lunduke.substack.com/p/chatgpt-can-not-say-bryan-lundukeThe Cathedral and the Bazaar by Eric Raymond: http://www.catb.org/esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/Our Kiwi Farms/Josh Moon episode: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-107-how-the-internet-lost-its-backbone-with-joshua-moon/Cori’s Kiwi Farms article: https://corinnacohn.substack.com/p/the-world-should-not-need-kiwi-farmsLarry Sanger Speaks Out: https://christopherrufo.com/p/larry-sanger-speaks-outWomen in tech: https://mimiandeunice.com/2018/11/07/women-in-tech/ Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe
