Interview with David Ignatius

Episode 333 of the Cyberlaw Podcast

|The Volokh Conspiracy |


In our latest episode I interview David Ignatius about the technology in his latest spy novel, The Paladin. Actually, while we do cover such tech issues as deepfakes, hacking back, Wikileaks, and internet journalism, the interview ranges more widely, from the steel industry of the 1970s, the roots of Donald Trump's political worldview, and the surprisingly important role played in the Trump-Obama-Russia investigation by one of David Ignatius's own opinion pieces.
