Rana Foroohar (Replay): Are Big Tech Companies Evil?

Hello and welcome back to Ctrl Alt Delete this is a replay of my episode with Financial Times columnist Rana Foroohar from February 2020. She is a writer who investigates how today’s biggest tech companies are hijacking our data, our livelihoods, and our minds. This episode is on her book Don't be Evil and The Case Against Big Tech - aka Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google) and how tech has changed and how it's changed us. We discuss the question: can we rebel against tech now or are we just too embedded? I hope you enjoy this fascinating episode.  Read ‘Don't Be Evil and The Case Against Big Tech' https://uk.bookshop.org/a/153/9780141991085Africa's Instagram Page: https://www.instagram.com/africabrooke/?hl=enMy Substack page, come and say hi: https://thehyphen.substack.com/My books: https://uk.bookshop.org/contributors/emma-gannonBooks mentioned on Ctrl Alt Delete podcast: https://uk.bookshop.org/lists/books-mentioned-on-ctrl-alt-delete-podcastTwitter: Twitter.com/emmagannonInstagram: Instagram.com/emmagannonuk Hosted on Acast.
