🎮🚨 New Episode Drop! 🚨🎮
Our latest episode You Don’t Own Me has officially landed — and data darling, it’s serving controller couture, AI plot twists, digital drama, and a reality check worthy of a final boss battle.
There I was, controller in hand, ready to escape into another virtual world. But somewhere between digital downloads, endless updates, AI-powered gameplay and “Accept Terms & Conditions,” I realised something had quietly changed. And I couldn’t help but wonder… when did buying a game stop meaning you actually owned it?
In this episode of Data & The City, we press start on one of gaming’s biggest transformations. From digital ownership and data harvesting to eye tracking, artificial intelligence and the laws trying to keep pace, we’re exploring what happens when our favourite hobby becomes one of the most fascinating conversations in privacy and technology.
This episode’s chapters:
🎮 Player One, Terms Apply — From couch co-op and memory cards to online accounts, digital storefronts and AI-powered experiences, we explore how gaming quietly transformed from something we owned into something we increasingly access.
🎙️ The Eye Of The Beholder — We sit down with Michael Raschke, founder of Blickshift, to explore eye tracking in gaming, what it means for accessibility and immersion, and why our gaze may become one of the most valuable forms of data in the next generation of games.
⚖️ You Don’t Own Me — We unpack the real-world headlines shaping the future of gaming: PlayStation lawsuits, AI-generated games, massive data collections, copyright battles, dynamic pricing, the AI Act, the GDPR, the rest of the Digital Decade and what every gamer can do to stay in control of their digital life.
