Summary

We’ve pivoted back from pivoting to video (it was a brief sojourn), and on this week’s Trashfuture, Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Nate (@inthesedeserts) spoke with Guardian tech reporter and TF veteran Alex Hern (@alexhern) about… the tech industry. Well, we actually speak about a number of things, to include Philip Hammond’s belief that blockchain will fix the Northern Ireland border crisis for Brexit, angry Conservative men yelling at children in hospital, Facebook’s pivot to video, and the fascist hell that threatens to consume us all. We’re doing a live show tonight in London.
