Why the Internet Just Keeps Getting Worse with Cory Doctorow

Cory Doctorow joins me to talk about Enshitification, his new book about the long decline of the internet. We go through how platforms start out good for users, turn on them once they’re locked in, and finally become unrecognizable corporate machines. Cory explains how this pattern connects to monopoly power, labor exploitation, and government capture, and why it’s not just a tech problem but a political one.Cory Doctorow’s links:https://craphound.com/https://craphound.com/shop/https://us.macmillan.com/books/9780374619329/enshittification/https://x.com/doctorow  My links: https://linktr.ee/skepticalleftist
