Ep. 81 Techdirt’s Mike Masnick

On today’s episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we
speak with Techdirt.com founder and editor Mike Masnick.


Since founding Techdirt in 1997, Masnick has written nearly
50,000 blog posts for the publication and covered many of tech’s
hottest free speech controversies. He even coined the phrase
“Streisand Effect.”


In this conversation, we discuss some of the issues Masnick has
recently written about for Techdirt, including defamation
lawsuits and content moderation. We also ask Mike about the
founding of Techdirt, the culture for free speech in Silicon
Valley, the fear surrounding new technologies, and, of course,
the story behind the Streisand Effect.
