In TRANSACTION DENIED, author Rainey Reitman examines financial censorship and the growing power of financial institutions to influence speech. ⚖️ What begins in one corner of the internet does not necessarily stay there. The adult industry’s experiences with banks offer a cautionary example of how this power can extend quietly behind the scenes. 🎧 Listen on Future Knowledge, wherever you get your podcasts. https://lnkd.in/eHfQHBmv #DigitalRights #FreeExpression #InternetGovernance

📞🌐💾 Were you an internet… Prodigy? Prodigy began in the mid-1980s as a dial-up online world before the open web existed. It offered a curated, menu-driven experience with forums, messaging, games, and early online services. In the 1990s, it adapted to the internet age, but was eventually overtaken by larger web portals & ISPs, with its remaining services winding down in the 2010s.
