b'Charlie Warzel is a senior tech writer for BuzzFeed.\\n\\n \\u201cPart of the big tech reckoning that we\\u2019re seeing since the election isn\\u2019t really about the election, it isn\\u2019t really about Trump or politics. It\\u2019s more about this idea that: Wow, these services have incredibly real consequences in our everyday lives. I think that realization is really profound and is going to shape how we try to figure out what it means to be online from here on out. To keep stories relevant, we have to keep that in mind and try to figure out how to speak to that audience and guide them through that reckoning.\\u201d\\n\\nThanks to MailChimp and Tripping.com for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n@cwarzel\\nWarzel on Longform\\n[01:45] Stoner\\n[01:45] Coin Talk\\n[06:25] Warzel\\u2019s BuzzFeed Archive\\n[10:20] "Pornhub Banned Deepfake Celebrity Sex Videos, But The Site Is Still Full Of Them" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 April 2018)\\n[11:50] "The Disturbing Misogynist History Of GamerGate\'s Goodwill Ambassadors" (Joseph Berstein \\u2022 BuzzFeed \\u2022 Oct 2014)\\n[13:05] "Here\'s How Breitbart And Milo Smuggled Nazi and White Nationalist Ideas Into The Mainstream" (Joseph Berstein \\u2022 BuzzFeed \\u2022 Oct 2017)\\n[19:00] "YouTube Is Addressing Its Massive Child Exploitation Problem" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 Nov 2017)\\n[25:30] "Trump\'s Antagonistic Tweet Tests The Limits of Twitter\'s Rules" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 Dec 2016)\\n[26:35] "Inside The Chaotic Battle To Be The Top Reply To A Trump Tweet" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 June 2017)\\n[27:45] "Alex Jones Just Can\'t Help Himself" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 May 2017)\\n[27:55] Longform Podcast #129: Rukmini Callimachi (Part 1)\\n[32:45] "The Case For Interviewing Alex Jones" (BuzzFeed \\u2022 June 2017)\\n[38:55] "Scammers Are Impersonating Elon Musk And Donald Trump To Take Your Bitcoin" (Ryan Mac, Charlie Warzel \\u2022 BuzzFeed \\u2022 Feb 2018)\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
