[The Internet of Humans](https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/internet-of-humans-with-jillian-york/id1591445737)
The Internet of Humans is a podcast for and about the humans behind one of our favorite things: The internet. There is something profoundly human about the Internet, its infrastructure. The ability of people to join without permission and innovate, the ability of actors to act independently, yet obey to certain standards and the ability to provide the services that allow people to communicate - are all features of a very human technology. At the same time, beyond this heavy machinery, humans feed the Internet constantly with data that affects their lives and those of others. While we talk about issues of speech in the Internet, we rarely pose to consider the impact speech suppression has on humans. Hosted by @kkomaitis and @jilliancyork.
