About this episode

I am joined by Gaia Bernstein, a Doctor of Judicial Science and a Doctor of Jurisprudence, who holds the positions of Technology, Privacy, and Policy Professor of Law, Co-Director of the Institute for Privacy Protection, and Co-Director of the Gibbons Institute of Law Science and Technology at Seton Hall University. In this episode, Gaia Bernstein and I discuss her new book titled “Unwired: Gaining Control Over Addictive Technologies.

In This Episode, Gaia Bernstein And I Discuss Her Book "Unwired"

On the podcast, we discuss Gaia’s latest book, “Unwired: Gaining Control Over Addictive Technologies.” Gaia Bernstein, an expert on the connections between law, technology, health, and privacy, explained how our society is addicted to technology and legal recourse that can help avoid this dependency. Gaia shows that the solution is to shift the responsibility to the tech corporations who create addictive technology instead of the users who resort to self-help options to limit screen time.
