MiB: Cory Doctorow on “Enshittification”

 

 

On this special, bonus edition of Masters in Business, I speak with Cory Doctorow, a science fiction author, activist, journalist and blogger. They discuss the power of large companies over the Internet, and Corey’s advocacy for data privacy. Barry and Cory discuss platform decay on the Internet, and how companies keep operating profitably while the user experience decays.

His new book is “Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It.”

An transcript will be posted below (shortly).

You can stream and download our full conversation, including any podcast extras, on Apple Podcasts, SpotifyYouTube, and Bloomberg. All of our earlier podcasts on your favorite pod hosts can be found here.

Be sure to check out our Masters in Business this weekend with Zach Buchwald, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Russell Investments. The global investment firm was founded in 1936, and today has ~$332 billion in AUM. Previously, he had a 15-year tenure at BlackRock, where he served as the head of its $2 trillion Institutional Business, leading the company’s Financial Institutions Group and helped establish its Retirement Solutions and Financial Markets Advisory platforms.
