Wiser! #104: Trump has no shame. Big Tech face increasingly stronger headwinds from regulators, lawmakers and the courts. SBF is in jail. TikTok is being censored. Elon Musk only lets you play by his rules. More about ChatGPT.
w/Wiser! #104 - Friday 16th December
Preamble
The headlines this week have been dominated by Elon Musk's incoherent management style at Twitter. He's only letting you play on Twitter by his rules.
Plus, the regulatory and legal headwinds building against Big Tech's domination of the digital economy are blowing harder.
There's increasing concerns in the US about TikTok as a weapon of the CCP, and the arrest of Sam Bankman-Fried and continued exposure that FTX was no more than an "old-fashioned fraud."
Speaking of fraudsters, Donald J Trump dropped a $99 NFT collection that sold out immediately. Described as "sleazy", "embarrasing" and a "scam", this wasn't a story about NFTs or the technology, but how the former president has no shame when it comes to self-promotion.
