Hello and welcome back to yet another episode of the Tech for Good Live podcast. A podcast all about the ways technology does good in the world.

We’ll be talking about Threads, obviously. It would be weird not to and we’ll be looking into how some decisions being made in the US courts are affecting tech.

Bex is on hosting duties and she is joined by TFGL team members Greg Ashton and Paul Jakubowski

Our special guest this week is Dan Owen.

Dan is a trustee and developer at BanktheFood, a charity on a mission to ensure food banks always have exactly what they need and not just baked beans. In this episode, Dan will give us his thoughts on the latest news, but tune in to next week's episode to hear more about the amazing work he is doing with BanktheFood, an award winner at the recent Tech4Good Awards.

This week’s topics:

Good story of the week:

It's goodish news for now because it seems everyone is being nice on Threads. Zuckerberg's Twitter Killer:

Threads review: Twitter without the rough edges or news - Guardian

But is it all bollocks?

Zuckerberg’s kindness pledge for Threads is ‘absurd’, says Molly Russell charity - Guardian

Bad news story of the week:

Seems the courts are going full Atwood in America:

Let's take a look at those US Supreme Court decisions and how they will affect tech - The Register

Biden administration seeks emergency order halting ban on social media company contacts - Reuters

----------------------------

Listeners, what did you think? We’d love to hear your thoughts.

We’d love it if you gave us a nice iTunes review and told your pals about this podcast!

Thanks to podcast.co for hosting our podcast.

Also, please don't forget this podcast is run by volunteers and we survive on sponsorships and donations. Right now one of our primary goals is to make sure all of our podcast episodes are accessible by making sure EVERY episode is transcribed. Sadly this costs money and we desperately need your help to make this become a reality! So if you've ever tuned into one of our podcasts or attended one of our events please consider chipping in the price of a cup of coffee.
