Story
When two Stanford graduate students set out to create a new kind of cigarette that wouldn’t kill them, they didn’t foresee all the obstacles that lay ahead — or the powerful forces their invention would unleash. Nearly 10 years after the launch of the JUUL, Backfired: The Vaping Wars asks: Could e-cigarettes have been the solution to one of the world’s most pressing public health problems—or was this technology doomed to introduce a whole new generation to nicotine, and end up perpetuating an intractable addiction?

Story
To be human in today’s world means that you engage in constant linguistic interactions with some form of technology, from your smart phone to your refrigerator. That’s not as new a trend as you might think. Language has shaped - and been shaped by - some of our world’s most significant communication technologies. Our current language bears the marks of millennia of interaction between humans and our technologies, beginning with the very first primitive writing systems and moving into the age of the printing press, the telegraph, and the typewriter.

Story
Von #FreeBritney über Katzencontent bis zum Fall Justine Sacco: Das Internet ist ein hektischer Ort geworden. In den sozialen Netzwerken jagt ein Meme das nächste, ein Hashtag den anderen. Für alle, denen vom Swipen ganz schwindelig wird, fragt Sophie Passmann gemeinsam mit dem Radiojournalisten Simon Dömer nach: Welche wahren Geschichten stecken hinter den mal empörenden, mal rührenden Posts, die durchs Netz gehen? Was verrät dieser Shitstorm oder jenes virale Video über unsere Gesellschaft? Und wie kommen Menschen eigentlich mit ihrem plötzlichen Internet-Ruhm klar?

Fake News, Smart Cars, Darknet, Bots, Big Data, Big Brother, Cyborgs, Bitcoins und Blockchain - Häh? Wenn es darum geht, welche Algorithmen unser Leben bestimmen und wer wo welche Daten von uns speichert, sieht man oft nicht durch. Dabei fühlen, sehen und leben wir jeden Tag digital und vernetzt.
