DAO And Out In The Metaverse ft. Ed Ongweso Jr

Tuesday Nov 30, 2021
This week, we're rejoined by Ed Ongweso Jr (@bigblackjacobin), a writer at Vice and a co-host of the podcast This Machine Kills, to talk about ConstitutionDAO, another crypto thing that claims to be emancipatory and revolutionary, but also seems to really benefit the rich for some reason? We then go on to talk about the Metaverse, and why Facebook's announcement of their weird virtual boardrooms might simply be a way to paper over problems that they have caused, and realised are unfixable. Ultimately, this could be more effective if they simply were broken down and treated like utilities, but unsurprisingly, this is something that Mark Zuckerberg (and other tech guys) really don't want. So, as a result, it looks like we're all going to be forced to play by more of Facebook's rules. Great!
