Journalist Glyn Moody joins Ben to discuss his new book and specifically to focus on how copyright laws threaten the open market of ideas on the internet, and how the copyright world is throttling creativity in the digital realm. Ben shares a story on a new Executive Order from President Biden on surveillance and data sharing with the European Union. Dave's got the story of the consequences of a community banning ransomware payments.
