Digital platforms and their corporate leaders have risen to unprecedented economic, political and cultural power over the last three decades. How did these companies acquire the public trust that allowed them to achieve monopoly status, tremendous surveillance capabilities and ubiquity in our lives and institutions?

The lecture is free and open to the public.
