Episode Notes

Data has become the currency of the digital world. Every app we use, every AI model we interact with, and every connected device we own depends on collecting, storing, and sharing information about us. But as AI accelerates, a fundamental question becomes impossible to ignore: who actually owns our data, and who should control it?
