This podcast episode explores the concept of techno-feudalism and its implications on our modern society. The speaker raises the question of whether our current system resembles the power structures of the feudal system, highlighting the concentration of power in the hands of big tech companies like Amazon and the erosion of market competition. The rise of technofeudalism challenges traditional notions of capitalism and prompts a reevaluation of our approach to societal issues. The conversation also discusses the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the relationship between populist and establishment candidates, and the need to break up the control that tech companies have over our behavior and data.
