About this episode

The US DOJ is proposing a breakup of Google’s Browser and potentially its OS business as well. How likely is that? Plus Facebook Messenger has added support for HD video calls, audio and video voice messages, generative backgrounds, and support for Apple’s Siri. Tubi has introduced a new short-form video feature called “Scenes” that lets users explore short clips from over 250,000 popular television programs and films.

Starring Sarah Lane, Robb Dunewood, Justin Robert Young, Roger Chang, Joe.
