Dystopia is a State of Mind

In the new Scout Incoming Transmission, I ask Cory Doctorow which questions will define the future. Read the interview right here.

He points out our most pernicious assumptions and how we need to update our world views and institutions to accommodate technological change.

We discuss his new novel Walkaway (featured in the latest edition of my reading recommendation newsletter), his activism with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and where he finds strength in his darkest moments.

I found his book and the interview moving and provocative. Give it a read and let me know what you think. I promise it’s worth your time.
