#global-public-policy” is a tech policy podcast. Most policymakers are not aware of how business, product and engineering teams at tech companies think about policy issues, nor of the weight that they hold over and above policy priorities. On the flipside, tech companies are unable to communicate with regulators in a way that respects government process and concerns about the public interest. This podcast aims to be a small part of the solution.
