Welcome back to Burning Platforms – a podcast about the politics of technology - from our new home at Per Capita’s Centre of the Public Square.

This week, Peter, Lizzie, and Dan dive deep into Meta's threat to pull news from Australia and what it will mean to journalism and whether the compromise required to create the News Media Bargaining Code will become the seeds of its destruction. 

Also: 

* Is banning TikTok the next global border war?

* Are self-driving cars jumping the tech shark?

* Is a free AI course really 'scholarship?'

The Burning Platforms panel was joined by academic, Belinda Barnett.

Burning Platforms is brought to you by the Centre of the Public Square - an initiative of Per Capita.
