    What if a popular messaging app is reshaping warfare? We're about to take you on a journey into the nexus of technology, warfare, and propaganda, with our insightful guest, Ari Ben-Am, Co-founder of Telemetry Data Labs, a startup that's building a search engine for Telegram.

    Ari is an expert in "memetic warfare," the strategic use of memes, viral images, and culturally resonant symbols to influence public opinion or disrupt an adversary's narrative in the modern digital battlefield.

    We'll unpack the role of Telegram, a tool for 800 million users worldwide, and a platform for both kinetic and cyber warfare, now being exploited by groups such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, and their patron Iran. With its unregulated nature and distinct usage patterns across the globe, we'll explore how this messaging app has become a central battleground in war.
