Last year, Jonah Peretti, the CEO and founder of BuzzFeed published “How To Save The Internet'. Jonah opened his widely read piece by saying, “The internet is at a crossroads. In one direction, there is a flaming dumpster fire, pushing people apart. In the other, the internet is a source of joy and truth, connecting people together. We have the chance right now to work together to build a better future.” During this talk, Jonah and Maureen will discuss whether the internet can truly be saved as the crises of 2020 grow.
