What has become of the ideas and the vision of the World Wide Web? Well, many things have changed since "circa 1993", and amongst many good things, a plethora of unexpected consequences came in the same bag.In this episode of redefining society, we talk with our friend Charity Wright about what is the reality of the internet today when it comes to the many ways that social media have been utilized to spread ideologies, misinformation, propaganda, and, more often than not, lately, pure and unaltered lies. From walled internets controlled by authoritarian countries to the subtitle, and not so subtitle, way to change realities even in free democratic nations, we have gone a long way from that original vision of what the WWW could have been.We are still hopeful that the truth in our societies will ultimately prevail, even if we need to adjust the social contract for the digital age that we are already living. And if worst comes to worst, there is still The Mouth of Truth — see you in Rome!Enjoy! _____________________________GuestCharity WrightThreat Intelligence Analyst at Recorded Future [@recordedfuture]On Twitter | https://twitter.com/CharityW4CTIOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/cwillhoite/_____________________________Resources_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBugcrowd 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbgcwebBlackCloak 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbcweb____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/advertise-on-itspmagazine-podcast
