Open Internet Pod

Saito Network

The internet was never supposed to belong to anyone. Somewhere along the way the internet turned into the corpo-net.

The Open Internet Podcast is a show about the quiet transformation happening beneath the surface of the web — and why it matters more than most people realise. Each episode, we sit down with builders, thinkers, policy advocates, and technologists to examine the forces that are reshaping the internet from an open network into something increasingly managed, monetised, and controlled.

We call this process Enclosure. It shows up in the legislation that mandates scanning of your private messages in the name of safety. It shows up in the operating system update that removes a feature you depended on. It shows up in the app store policy that decides which software you're allowed to run on hardware you own. It shows up at the airport, when a viral post with six million views tells you to delete your social media apps before you cross the border
