Inside The Rage Machine highlights new whistleblowers, engineers, and managers from inside tech corporations to show how algorithms that spread disinformation, social harms, and contribute to violence erupting in the real world are knowingly deployed by the companies to have these harms and incentives built-in. Through the lived experience and documents obtained from employees such as Matt Motyl from Facebook, Ruofan Ding from TikTok, and Lisa Jennings Young from Twitter, Inside The Rage Machine exposes the system itself that thrives on outrage and division as part of its business model, with radicalisation, real-world violence and fractured societies as just some of the consequences of the system that has been built to manipulate how users think, feel and perceive the world.
Police have embraced handheld "conducted energy devices" over the past two decades. The largest manufacturer is Axon, a corporate giant in the United States, with its renowned product the Taser. Axon has captured police forces throughout Australia and the world, supplying police with their Taser guns, body worn cameras, drones, evidence tracking tools, and data analysis. The weapons are claimed to be a "safer way to stop dangerous situations", but people are dying. It's also being covered up. Taser Tactics examines Axon, its role in 'high-tech' policing, and its secretive tactics to obfuscate and eliminate investigations into controversial deaths from their technologies. Case studies include 95-year-old Clare Nowland, who died after being tasered in a nursing home in 2023, as well as footage of a farmer being tasered within seconds of a police encounter on his own property for "non-compliance". The multi-billion-dollar tech giant has made itself indispensable to police in every state and territory, but when someone is killed with a Taser, what happens?
