My weird brain, and the power of big tech companies over governments - Patroncast S02E42

Hey everyone!


I hope you're all doing well! Here is episode 42 of your weekly podcast!


In this one, I talk about:

- 01:01 How my weird brain just gets completely addicted and consumed by a specific topic for weeks and weeks, and then just loses interest completely

- 07:53 How big tech companies now have enough power to basically influence lawmaking, not through economic power but through sheer power of nuisance

- 19:01 Personal stuff and how the channel's going

I hope you enjoy listening to this one!

Best,
Nick

In France we already have something, although not a social network, it's called the French pres Agency. It's jot government controlled, it's independent, and they basically report on everything, and other websites can read what they report, and make their own articles based on it. It's always ben very neutral and factual, so it could serve as a model for factual information, and then tack some "social features" on top of it? I think most people wouldn't want to use a government controlled social network, they would feel like they're buying into propaganda

How about Eu would make a own social media for gouvernement informations or local news. In the sense you enter what town and country you want local news, political Informationens and can follow. Than also the people you want to folloe or friends. What Problems do you think it will have? Except the one if people would want to be in a social Plattform of gov and trust issues

Very interesting! Using Seiko movements (not Miyota, always a plus), and looking pretty good, and pretty affordable too!

Since you're into watches you should really look into Aigi! It's a very new watch Norwegian watch brand that's inspired by northern Norwegian nature such as the aurora borealis. They also have a watch that's being made right now with steel from a satellite on the South Pole. Pretty cool project.
