Brian of London completed a PhD in Computational Fluid Dynamics just as the Web was emerging.
But then he left academia to do management consulting and eventually moved to Israel to do business.
Brian's working on the cutting edge of the new Podcasting 2.0 to make sure this relic of the early web, stays free from capture by the centralising forces of Web 2.0 and their dangerous desire to turn us all into dairy cows.
Brian was also the admin on Tommy Robinson's Facebook account that had over a million followers before it was nuked!
In his spare time, he assists with a gigantic class action lawsuit in Australia on behalf of the entire crypto industry.
