Can we avoid the enshittification of clean-energy tech?

In this episode, I chat with author Cory Doctorow about
"enshittification," his viral term for how digital platforms and

monopoly power, aggressive IP protections, and lax privacy law
enable companies to capture and exploit users — and what that
might mean for the clean energy transition as our homes and
vehicles become increasingly software-dependent.
