In this podcast, I chat with people fighting for a better web in their own way: accessibility experts, privacy advocates, developers pushing web standards forward, anti-monopoly voices, and people building alternatives to Big Tech tools. I hope you'll join me in meeting these inspiring individuals and hearing what it actually takes to build a more open, inclusive internet.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-30T00:17:55.873791+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/for-a-better-web-7035190"},"episode":{"title":"Digital Rights = Human Rights: Why It Matters","slug":"digital-rights-human-rights-why-it-matters","published_at":"2025-03-12T11:44:31+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/for-a-better-web-7035190/digital-rights-human-rights-why-it-matters","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/for-a-better-web-7035190","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/forabetterweb/episodes/Digital-Rights--Human-Rights-Why-It-Matters-e3011pt","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/fa587fdc/podcast/play/99697917/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-2-11%2F396375234-44100-2-f3a0db9b7e7ee.m4a","summary":"In this episode, Bruce talks with Jan Penfrat from European Digital Rights (EDRi) about the importance of defending digital rights as human rights in an increasingly digital world.
