Live at DLD with Esther Dyson | Investor and Philanthropist: Can Rules save the Internet?
Esther Dyson has worked as a journalist, made early investments in leading tech companies, and spent decades advocating for a better, more equitable digital world. In the first-ever live recording of UnternehmerTUM's podcast, Schlaflose Nächte, at DLD25, she explores whether the Internet remains a healthy tool for democracy and participation or has devolved into a platform for harmful content like hate and propaganda, driven by figures such as Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Esther also explores the importance of rules, shares what she would do with unlimited resources, and reveals the story behind the Dyson Gazette.
A big thanks to Steffi Czerny and the entire DLD team for making this collaboration possible.
