We hear a lot about all the ways our privacy is being violated, but very little about solutions. Is there anything people can do to protect their privacy now, and are there any viable policies which could help protect people's privacy in America on a broader scale?

Your analogy to IT makes no sense, and given the state of "gender affirmative care," I think very few patients are going to be stopped from getting surgery by their psychologists.

It's not a "trap" to ask someone how they think about the ethics of their work -- unless there is guilt involved.

What are your opinions about Marc Rebillet having a set at Coachella? As far as I know his rise to fame was largely through youtube and insta. What do you think of the impact of social media on pop music? Do you think different social media platforms have different kinds of impact?

In what ways do you think social media is causing a panic? Just that it's really shaking things up? I didn't mean to imply there's anything sinister about Marc Rebillet. I'm a huge fan of his.

It seems like the music industry has focused a lot more on promoting artists who have already achieved some level of fame on social media as a sort of proof of concept that they're worthy of investment, rather than periods in the past where relatively unknown yet incredibly talented performers would be elevated to fame by a label taking a risk and having that gamble pay off.
