In this episode, I talk with Cory Doctorow about his new book Enshitification. We get into the cycle that defines modern tech: platforms start out great, then slowly rot as they chase endless profit. Cory explains how it happened, how it connects to monopoly capitalism, and why Canada’s own trade and copyright policies helped lock in the problem. It’s an honest, funny, and detailed look at how the web was captured by greed—and how it could still be freed.
