The Web, But Better: The co-founders of Future Proof host conversations with founders, builders, and community leaders across the tech industry. These technologists challenge the status quo to build internet technologies that prioritize people both online and offline. Every week we discuss what's happening within the world of emerging technologies, questioning the ability for individual autonomy in a world of algorithms, resilience of social networks in the face of changing sentiments, and how best to preserve our privacy and data rights with or without the help of legislation.
