Tech and Politics: A Clash of Titans

Washington, USAWed Aug 06 2025

The tech world and politics used to be like ships passing in the night. They'd meet up, chat about rules, maybe exchange a few favors, and then go their separate ways. But those days are over. Now, they're locked in a high-stakes battle that's reshaping the world as we know it.

A Battle for Power and Influence

This isn't just about rules and regulations anymore. It's about power, influence, and the future of technology. From artificial intelligence to cryptocurrency, from self-driving cars to social media, every aspect of tech is now entangled with politics. And in Washington, where lawmakers are still trying to wrap their heads around these new technologies, the power dynamics can shift in the blink of an eye.

The newsletter will feature a mix of reporting and insights from various experts. You might hear from:
