February has come to a close, but with everything happening the past month, you’re sure to have missed a lot of things that went on in the tech world — let alone in every other facet of life. To help you out, I rounded out some of the best reads and notable stories from the last month that I think you’d want to know.

This recap is broken down into four parts: the top 3 stories of the month, then other great pieces that almost made the cut, followed by some labor updates, and finally a collection of other articles on issues I think are worth highlighting.

If you’re not already a paid subscriber, you only have a few days left to get a special discount. Don’t miss it!

Finally, I’ve had some great guests on Tech Won’t Save Us recently to help listeners understand what’s going on with DOGE’s government takeover (and how people might push back). System Crash is going well too, and was even recommended by The Guardian for providing “crucial insights” into the latest tech developments. You can also check out my interviews on

Have a great month, and enjoy this recap!
