• Biden’s Antitrust Architect on How Big Tech Threatens U.S. Prosperity

  Are we becoming a nation mined for our money, data, and attention? Author and legal scholar Tim Wu certainly thinks so.

Wu shares insights from his new book, “The Age of Extraction,” which maps out a path toward restoring competition and rebuilding an economy that works for everyone.   To watch the video version of this episode, visit our WSJ Podcasts YouTube channel or the video page of WSJ.com.  Check Out Past Episodes: The World’s Tech Giants Are Running Out of Power.
