Ep 35 | How the Government Weaponized the Internet | Guest: Mike Benz

Mike Benz, executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, joins James Poulos to discuss protecting digital liberties and the growing government control over censorship and access to information. As conflicts like Russia and Ukraine unfold, censorship on social media platforms further complicates the discourse, hindering efforts toward constructive dialogue and peace.
