About Edward Ongweso Jr

I’m a writer and editor based in Brooklyn, NY. Most of my work centers around tech criticism, labor and financial reporting, and book reviews. From 2019 to 2023, I was a staff writer at Motherboard, the technology section at VICE News. After leaving VICE, I was a Reporter-in-Residence at the Omidiyar Network and a guest columnist for The Nation. In 2024, I joined Logic(s) as a columnist and finance editor.

Currently I am: the co-host of This Machine Kills (a podcast about the political economy of technology), a senior researcher at Security in Context (focusing on artificial intelligence), and freelancing my writing and editing.
