American internet providers will no longer have to treat all data equally after the communications regulator the FCC relaxed the rules. Is it a blow for consumers and a win for telecoms companies or just a return to a previously successful system? Plus, Slava Rubin, co-founder of crowdfunding platform Indiegogo, tell us why it will give a home to Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), part of the investment craze around crypto-currencies. And could vast indoor farms help solve the world's food problems? We chat to Matt Barnard of Plenty, a US startup that thinks they could. Presented by 成人快手 technology correspondent Rory Cellan-Jones, with tech reporter Chris Foxx, and special guest Vicki Turk, senior editor at Wired UK.
