What's New at RightsCon? And How to Free Our Feeds | TechPolicy.Press A check-in with RightsCon director Nikki Gladstone and a conversation with Free Our Feeds proponents Robin Berjon and Sean McDonald.

New podcast! Two segments!

• First, Nikki Gladstone, director of Rightscon at Access Now, on what to expect at RightsCon25 in Taipei.

Sorry, TikTok isn't available right now A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can't use TikTok for now. We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office. Please stay tuned!

It's time to create a better, billionaire-proof and democratized social media.
