Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Going “off the grid” has become nearly impossible in the online era — where our cell phones, credit cards, social networking accounts and e-mail addresses leave constant digital clues about our physical whereabouts. One magazine recently promised to award a writer $3,000 if he could “disappear”– living one month, while evading detection by its tech-savvy readers. We hear about the results of Wired magazine’s “Vanish” contest, and explore the implications of living in world where total privacy no longer exists.
Guests
- Nicholas Thompson Senior Editor, Wired Magazine
- John Morris General Counsel, Director of the Internet Standards, Technology and Policy Project, Center for Democracy and Technology
