In today's podcast, we discuss the recent congressional hearing on TikTok, which marked the first bipartisan conversation in about three years. While Congress boasted about their efforts to protect national security and user privacy, it became apparent that many of the lawmakers pushing for a ban on the popular app have never even used it. This raises the question of whether there should be an age maximum for elected officials who lack the technical savvy to understand the issues they are tasked with regulating. We delve into the implications of this lack of due diligence and the broader problem it poses for our democracy. Join us for a lively conversation about the intersection of technology, politics, and the need for informed decision-making.
