1 tim 13 min•2 januari 2026

Om avsnittet

In January 2025, I discussed why it was the rising era of “IoS” (Internet of Shit). Not only did it exceed my expectations, but it has set the path for 2026, which will be the year of reckoning, and it won’t be pretty.


This is a replay of our very first livestream on YouTube, available in the live section of our channel.
