THE NEW EUGENICS: Big Tech's Antihuman Ideology
With Prof. Anita Say Chan, author of "Predatory Data"

Anita Say Chan's important new book, "Predatory Data: Eugenics in Big Tech and the Fight for Our Future," offers a fresh perspective on the forces and philosophies driving Big Tech and their roots in a 19th-century human breeding program. I found her observations to be enlightening, important—and, above all, frightening.
