Big tech in a small world (with Tom Kemp)

Serious Privacy

In this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal connect with Tom Kemp, a Silicon Valley based author, entrepreneur, investor, and policy advisor. He founded a cybersecurity cloud provider and was one of the drivers behind the campaign to adopt the CPRA in California. And now he has written a book containing big tech that is out later this summer.

Whether we look at the whole range of new legal requirements, from the European Digital Services and Market Acts, to the US state privacy laws, to regulatory enforcement decisions and discussions about breaking up some of the very large online platforms, big tech is under fire.

And our guest today has a view on these issues and is not shy to share it. We discuss the overcollection and weaponization of our most sensitive data, problematic ways Big Tech uses AI to process and act upon our data, and also the stifling of competition and entrepreneurship due to Big Tech's dominant market positions. He also discusses some practical matters such as how to block trackers on your personal devices along with a history of the CPRA.
