Welcome back to Represent More, a podcast from We Are Them Media.
In Episode 3, hosts Ryan Clarkson and Shireen Clarkson break down a week packed with major legal developments — including a brand new lawsuit that’s already making waves in the tech world and beyond.
Fresh off a weekend in Cabo, Ryan and Shireen get into it, covering:
- The Meta AI glasses lawsuit: why Clarkson filed a false advertising case against Meta in the Northern District of California — and what investigative journalists uncovered about footage from your home, your bathroom, and your private spaces being reviewed by workers halfway around the world
- Why “it’s in the fine print” isn’t good enough — and how 24,000 words of legalese isn’t notice, it’s a shield
- Mark Zuckerberg walking into a Los Angeles courtroom wearing the glasses he’s being sued over — and what that stunt reveals about how out of touch Big Tech has become
- Two Ninth Circuit appellate hearings: a false advertising case against Target over misrepresented bedsheet thread counts, and a consumer protection case against Brita over what its water filters actually do — and don’t — remove from your tap
- The war in Iran: the human cost, the absence of a plan, and what it means to Shireen, whose own family is living through it
- Why Ryan’s rose of the week is the ballot box — and what this November means for the direction of the country
The through line? The same one that runs through every episode of Represent More: powerful interests are moving faster than the systems designed to hold them accountable. Whether it’s a tech giant commodifying your privacy while promising to protect it, a filter brand leaving consumers in the dark about what’s still in their water, or a government entering a war with no clear plan — the pattern holds.
And if corporations won’t come clean on their own, it falls to the courts — and to the consumers, lawyers, and journalists willing to demand answers.
