You're On Mute

A podcast that explores how advertising, technology, and the internet is shaping the world around us and impacting our daily lives.

Have you ever wondered why that pair of shoes is following you around the internet? Or is my phone really listening to me to inform the advertising I see? Or maybe you want to learn more about what laws and legislation are being put in place to protect you and your data? In every You're On Mute episode we will try to answer questions, uncover truths, and provide facts, all with a side of cynicism, humor, and randomness.
