Episode 311: You, Commodity

As a society, we have willingly given up our rights to privacy. On the surface it would seem the trade-off came at no real cost. It was nothing nefarious, it was all done in the name of advertising. You have become the ultimate product. Your information, who you are, where you live, where you go, what you like (and don't like), what you do for a living, who lives with you and where you go are all bits of very valuable information to those you willingly surrendered. Why? In this episode, Ric will lay out exactly what is happening along with some workable theories as to how it all works including a little history. Also in this episode, the death of Kobe Bryant.
