Oooh this looks like some very good information! As someone who has some tech knowledge but does not work in tech, it's really difficult to figure out a lot of this stuff. (And I've loved Maia's previous appearances on this show too!)

These are very helpful. People are asking; “how do we fight back?” The first step is being informed. When I was an AIDS activist, (many moons ago,) we followed the science, we educated ourselves so we could be more effective, whether that was a press event, a demonstration, or as a patient. Educate yourself, organize, make a plan, act. In that order. Keep up the good work. I look forward to hearing more of these.
