On the newest episode of Exponent, the podcast I co-host with James Allworth:

Are the recent debates on net neutrality, the protests of Google buses, even SOPA a sign of things to come? Building on yesterday’s article The Net Neutrality Wake-up Call, we discuss the intersection of technology and politics.

• Why do people in technology tend to dislike politics?
• Is net neutrality really that important and understanding open loop unbundling
• The tech industry and creative destruction: is it good for society when companies go out of business?
• The impact of money on politics
• Why tech and politics are on a collision course
• What we can do to effect change on an individual basis
