Roger McNamee: Facebook, Privacy, and Creating Better Tech Policy

With Amazon's Alexa spying on her owners, a massive data breach masterminded by Cambridge Analytica, and evidence of election interference promulgated by Facebook, tech policy has never had more significant implications for our society and democracy. Join us as Roger McNamee—noted tech venture capitalist, early mentor to Mark Zuckerberg, and Facebook investor—discusses how he came to realize the serious damage that Facebook and other social media giants are doing and how he has committed to try to stop them.

"McNamee’s book ["Zucked"] is not merely the cri de coeur of a forsworn tech optimist zinged by moral conscience. It’s also a robust and helpful itemization of the ways Facebook could be brought to heel."
