Tech Policy Press editor @npub1dgvg...xm77 recently interviewed @npub1g03w...d2qp and Burcu Kilic about their article, "Big Tech Redefined the Open Internet to Serve Its Own Interests." Here's a transcript of the discussion. "One of the big ideas of this piece is that keeping the internet protected, keeping the internet, the way it works in an unfettered way and preserving interoperability and so on has become the slogan or the rallying cry of these huge companies that are using their position as centralized services or networks to say, 'We are protecting that.
