I’m a big fan of TED Talks. This week I ran across a TED Talk from 2019 that feels like it was made for 2026. The title is “How Americans Can Become Tech Policy Activists” but it feels more like understanding how tech policy impacts your everyday…

Here’s a description from TED…

“When you’ve voted for a political candidate — be it federal, state, or local — did you ever take into consideration their stances on cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, or data privacy? You probably didn’t, but it’s time tech policy took its place in the spotlight for voters. In this talk former technology journalist and longtime media executive Caroline McCarthy offers a basic overview of what makes tech policy different from all the other political issues out there, and a framework for learning about it and getting involved with elected officials.
