The Rage Against Surveillance | The Confab 19: Will Jager
Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.
The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.
In this episode, Max speaks with Will Jager from The Rage to discuss the ongoing battle for privacy in the digital age. They hit on the complexities surrounding the Samourai Wallet case and the broader implications of government overreach on software developers. Will shares insights into the challenges faced by independent journalists in covering these critical issues and the importance of supporting platforms that strive to maintain journalistic integrity. They also touch on the evolving landscape of privacy legislation in the EU and the potential consequences for encryption and personal freedoms.
