このコンテンツについて

Technocracy For Dummies brings together experts across the fields of technology, politics, media, and culture in clarifying conversations for the rest of us. Unanimously elected Gen Z representative Sam Simon hosts Technocracy for Dummies, where she can be dum so you don’t have to. Many Americans and global citizens know the democratic American dream is built on disempowerment. Technology codifies and protects the existing power structures, yet has the potential to change them. With guests helping to demystify the technological frontier, Technocracy for Dummies connects with visionaries about what works and what doesn’t, so that we have greater agency over our futures. Sam Simon is highly opinionated, partially educated, and has talked from a very young age. Critical reviewers say “people should pay to hear [her] talk” (Sam’s therapist, 2021). Because she believes in educational equity, Technocracy for Dummies is a free podcast, despite its availability on platforms which disseminate at the price of freedom and human lives. There are many things she does not know but looks forward to kind of understanding. TFD is produced and edited by Sam Simon and Matty Rosenberg at Radio Free Rhinecliff.© 2025 政治・政府

  • Track or Treat: Spooky Surveillance with Andrew Couts
    2025/10/31

    Host Sam Simon talks with Andrew Couts, senior editor of cybersecurity and surveillance at bastion-of-sanity tech mag Wired. While not conceived as a Halloween episode, boy is it relevant! From Andrew, we learn about the extent to which anyone with a phone and internet access is being surveilled - by actors from the social media industry to hackers to international governments. It’s pretty spooky. We also talk about what it’s like to be a tech journalist with integrity in technologically-accelerated end times. At least we still have freedom of the press!

    Mike Masnick article mentioned briefly at the beginning.

  • With vs Versus with Baratunde Thurston
    2025/10/09

    How can we find accountability without shame for our dependence on Big Tech? Where can we take action in our communities on- and offline? On this episode of Technocracy for Dummies, Sam is joined by host, writer, speaker, and exemplary lifer Baratunde Thurston. We have lots of fun chatting about ethical and functional use of technology in an (impending? or are we already there?) age of digital feudalism.

    Conversational links!

  • Technocracy How? with Jennifer Pahlka
    2025/09/25

    What is technocracy? Are we in one? If so, how did we get here? In the first episode of Technology for Dummies, host Sam Simon talks with Jennifer Pahlka, former Deputy CTO and founder of Code for America. We chat about the US government's dysfunctional relationship to technology, past accumulating into the present. It's hard to move fast and break things when the systems already move slowly and are broken.
