On this episode of the Prospect Podcast, our hosts Ellen Halliday and Alona Ferber are joined by journalist, tech activist and sci-fi writer Cory Doctorow, who coined the term “ensh*ttification” to describe the decay of digital services into exploitative, user-hostile platforms.

Cory discusses how to grab people’s attention, and how to fight back against tech giants.
