📚 Lecture: "Is Google About to Destroy the Internet?"

🎤 Speaker: Thomas Germain

Join us for a thought-provoking evening with Thomas Germain as he explores a pressing question: Is Google on the brink of destroying the internet as we know it? While you may not immediately feel its effects, recent changes to Google Search have already begun to wreak havoc on the very infrastructure of the online world. In this enlightening lecture, Thomas will discuss how upcoming shifts could lead to the crumbling of the internet we’ve come to love, and what the world might look like once the dust settles.

As the BBC's technology columnist and host of the podcast "The Interface," Thomas Germain delves deep into the hidden systems that underpin our digital landscape. His investigative work reveals the intricate dynamics of how tech giants manipulate both users and one another in their quest for dominance. Remarkably, his reporting prompted Facebook to delete facial recognition data for over a billion people.

Don’t miss this chance to gain insight into the future of the internet with the knowledgeable Thomas Germain!
