Algorithm and blues: a watershed social-media verdict
A jury in California agreed with a plaintiff who argued that Meta and Google, two social-media giants, designed their platforms to be addictive. That opens the floodgates to more litigation and perhaps to regulatory change. We examine the world’s maritime chokepoints and how they shape geopolitics—littorally, not figuratively. And how digitally animated films came to dominate the box office. Guests and host: Tom Wainwright, media editorAnton La Guardia, diplomatic editorAlex Selby-Boothroyd, head of data journalismJason Palmer, co-host of “The Intelligence” Topics covered: social-media sites, internet use, online addictiongeopolitics, chokepoints, Strait of Hormuzanimated films Get a world of insights by subscribing to Economist Podcasts+.
