The Ppdcast for Techies and Conscious Minds
I've gotten into political podcasts and documentaries as of late, it was what I studied at Uni and it's something that is dear to me. I'm also very tech oriented so this is a great match to my interests.
Thia has great story telling and pacing, and it's easy to follow, and explores everything from tech security to espionage in a way, and it's coinciding with some of the subjects I am studying in my Masters so I am a fan. It's been heard to stop to listen to anything else.

Couldn’t stop listening
This podcasts takes you on a journey — from India to Belarus to Florida — that you don’t want to end, but also do want to end because it feels like the world has entered a tech dystopia.

Incredible listen
I never write reviews but felt compelled to with this show! I binged the series, which was so thought-provoking and compellingly told. I learned something new in each episode. This is a great show for curious, globally-minded listeners who love good storytelling. Hope there’s another season!

Eye-opening global reporting
Spectacular series. Takes us from Calais to Xinjiang, from Afghanistan and India to small town USA. It shows us how governments, whether democratic or authoritarian, use big tech to enhance surveillance and control. As an Indian, the episode on India was particularly shocking, showing how the government of a country that styles itself the 'mother of democracy' can put people in prison based on malware and planted evidence, at least according to US forensic investigators. Another episode I found compelling was the one in which a young man from Xinjiang flees all the way to northern Norway... but can he ever outrun Chinese surveillance? This is binge-worthy stuff, a reminder of why great international journalism remains so important.

This is really excellent
As someone whose eyes normally glaze over when it comes to tech, I found myself hooked on my first ever tech podcast with this one. The series does a great job humanizing these massive topics into binge worthy listening. Each story has an unexpected twist and transports you around the globe. Nothing like a podcast that makes you feel smarter after listening but also kept you on the edge of your seat the whole way.

VERY balanced and informative
This series has a very balanced perspective, with multiple views and opinions. Well researched. It does an excellent job of showing how tech is used for not just for freeing or oppressive actions, but also ways tech is used to harass people considered undesirable.
As technology becomes more sophisticated and easier to use by non-technical operators, and how intrusive it has become, this series shows how important it is to act ourselves.
