Summary

EPISODE #1111 THE DARK SIDE OF H.G. WELLS Richard welcomes back digital privacy expert and author Gabriel Custodiet to talk about the lesser known facets of famous British author H.G. Wells. Custodiet reveals that not only was Wells an avowed socialist but also one of the early so-called "Utopian" philosophers whose vision of man's future was rather dystopian. Wells was an advocate for greater state control, surveillance and depopulation. GUEST: Gabriel Custodiet is the host of the Watchman Privacy Podcast, which offers practical tactics to evade surveillance while also exploring the technological, political, and cultural problems that make privacy so pressing and all-compassing an issue. His mixture of tactics, philosophy, and red pilling has made his eclectic show a bit of a cult classic in the podcast world. He recently published Privacy and Utopia, an intellectual history that attempts to explain the death of privacy by looking at its most recent origin: the rise of utopianism in the late nineteenth century. He also has a privacy tutorial series called Escape the Technocracy.
