What role does social media play in our lives? Is there life after data? And what does the future look like in a world where privacy is a luxury?
In this episode, we welcome Paul Geyer, PGR at the University of Leeds, political theorist and five-a-side football star. We talk to Paul about Watchdogs 2 to discuss what happens to social media after data, neofeudalism and the challenges of privacy.
