Are we becoming a nation mined for our money, data, and attention? Author and legal scholar Tim Wu certainly thinks so. A key architect of President Joe Biden’s antitrust policy, Wu joins WSJ’s <a href="https://www.wsj.com/news/author/christopher-mims?mod=WSJ_BNPOD">Christopher Mims</a> and <a href="https://www.wsj.com/news/types/tim-higgins?mod=WSJ_BNPOD">Tim Higgins</a> on Bold Names to explain how a handful of tech platforms conquered the economy and why he fears Silicon Valley could become “inefficient, bloated, and bested by foreign competitors,” if the country doesn’t rein in monopoly power. Wu shares insights from his new book, “The Age of Extraction,” which maps out a path toward restoring competition and rebuilding an economy that works for everyone.
