What does the future of cyberspace look like? How will cyber crime and cryptocurrencies evolve as the world becomes more virtual? How are governments adapting to emerging trends in cyberspace? Questions like these are often overlooked by technologists as being too abstract to answer. The reality is, that as tech evolves, so do the legal and cultural frameworks surrounding it. Sometimes the answer is to look backwards in history to see what the future holds. Other times, it’s to have a broad background and experience in multiple domains. Our guest in this show has both.
In this episode, we bring thought leader and futurist Roderick Jones to share some of his views on global trends. Roderick serves on the board of the Center for New American Security (CNAS), a public policy think tank. He’s worked at the Special Branch of Scotland Yard, London’s Metropolitan police focusing on counter-terrorism. Over the decades, he’s advised governments in the military and intelligence space on cyber crime, cyber security, and the virtualization of society. Roderick Jones combines his medieval historian entrepreneurial backgrounds to discuss the trajectory of our ever-digitizing world.
We discuss the evolution of cyber crime, cryptocurrencies, the role of government in protecting people’s cyber security, and more!
