Airing on Thursday, February 5, 2015: The FCC is poised to unveil new rules on net neutrality. We look at the legal quagmire that will emerge from this, and how it might ultimately impact consumers. Ross Ulbricht was convicted on Wednesday as the Dread Pirate Roberts, the mastermind behind an illegal online market called Silk Road. The minimum sentence he faces is 30 years and the maxium, life. We spoke with Sarah Jeong, a technology policy journalist who has been covering the Silk Road Trial for Forbes, about the verdict. Also, Robbie Allen, Founder and CEO of Automated Insights, joins us for our latest segment in Back to Back to the Future Part II - it's on software that writes news articles.

This was the first time I actually interviewed Steve Wozniak about this role. His job was to understand and teach others of the importance of Flash memory. Since he was an “Application guy”, this was a new strategy for him.

Fusion-IO went through some major changes: most notably the acquisition...

Airing on Wednesday, February 4, 2015: This week, the Federal Communications Commission is expected to make the internet a public utility. That is, wireless and broadband data will be regulated as a telecommunication service, and not an information service, under Title II of the Telecommunications Act. We spoke with Kevin Werbach, an Associate Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics at the University of Pennsylvania, about the FCC’s plans to reclassify the internet. And Kevin Roose, Senior Editor at Fusion, joins us to talk about how prisoners use cell phones and social media on the inside.
