Join us for the official relaunch of the No Jargon Podcast! For our first episode since our eleven-month hiatus, we take on Big Tech and government. Tech giants like Amazon and Facebook have been in the news a lot lately, especially after the House Judiciary Committee approved several antitrust bills this past summer that aim to curb the power of the tech industry. We decided to have a conversation with Margaret O\u2019Mara, a renowned historian who has spent most of her career examining the love/hate relationship between Big Tech and government. Dr. O\u2019Mara shares colorful stories about Silicon Valley \u2013 from its early beginnings to the days of the internet boom \u2013 all while explaining the Valley\u2019s ever-present intersection with US politics. She takes us on a journey through the ups and downs of the intensely eventful relationship between the two.
