I made a submission this week to the Treasury of the Australian Government on the right to repair in the age of Tesla https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5379231

The Australian Treasurer Hon. Jim Chalmers has been promising to expand the right to repair - it will be interesting to see what emerges in this policy space.

All surveillance technology is bad.

“The surveillance company Flock told employees at an all-hands meeting Friday that its new people search product, Nova, will not include hacked data from the dark web. The announcement comes a little over a week after 404 Media broke the news about internal tension at the company about plans to use breached data, including from a 2021 Park Mobile data break.

Immediately following the all-hands meeting, Flock published details of its decision in a public blog post it says is designed to "correct the record on what Flock Nova actually does and does not do." The company said that following a "lengthy, intentional process" about what data sources it would use and how the product would work, it has decided not to supply customers with dark web data.”

I often explain my work as "helping product teams do product management better." In this field, there's often an intuitive sense of "we're doing things wrong", but "good" or "right" are rarely well-defined.

That's what Product Conversations is digging into on Friday! Good Product Management with my friends @skinnylatte, @PamelaSchure, Rosemary King and Emily Reid.
