Show Notes

In this latest episode of the Net Politics podcast, I sit down with Farhaan Ladhani, the director of partnerships at the Digital Public Square.

I spoke with him about the creation of online spaces for political discussion in countries where the internet is heavily monitored and censored such as Iran, online anonymity, digital activism, and whether the internet is the best marketplace of ideas. Listen to the podcast below, or check it out on Soundcloud.
