From The Verge.

In five days, TikTok as we know it could be finished in the US. The Verge’s Lauren Feiner joins the show to discuss last week’s Supreme Court arguments over the ban, why things don’t look good for TikTok, and what’s likely to happen in the next five days. After that, Kickstarter CEO Everette Taylor talks about the state of the gadget inventor, and what it means to be part of the creator economy in 2025. Finally, we answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline about magic-link logins, and why passwords remain such a disaster. #Vergecast #Podcast #Technology
