WIRED has a history of championing rogues and disruptive innovators since its inception.
The current issue of WIRED explores the dark side of technology, featuring stories about scam influencers, DIY guns, and an AI-inflected death cult.
Despite the rise of bad actors in power, WIRED encourages embracing a positive form of 'rogue' spirit to drive positive change.
The issue also highlights individuals and organizations challenging the status quo, such as tech whistleblowers, anti-establishment rebels, and a vision for a democratized social internet.
