John Oliver discusses how much data brokers know about us, what they’re doing with our personal information, and one….unusual way to change privacy laws.Conn...

His stuff verges from okay to liberal bullshit and I hate him for it, this one is okay though.

John Oliver was great when his show first launched, but in the past years he just became a spokesperson for the American mainstream. This sounds like he’s going back to his roots as a troll. I like it.

I think his stunt at the end is his best yet. We’ll see where that goes.
