It did not appeal to me. Teachers, examples, material, presentation. One of the early examples, that banks "owned" your data and were not willing to pass them on to their competitors, for free presumably, just seemed nonsense. A nice political statement, banks are bad, but also ignoring that you are the ultimate owner of your data, there is nothing the bank has about you on original data, that you do not have. If you do not, it just shows you are irresponsible regarding your own information.

The professor is interrupting his guests all the time while not having anything useful to say

The primary issue with this course was its excessive focus on lengthy lectures that contributed little to meaningful learning or practical understanding. Each session felt like a marathon of words, where the main objective seemed to be filling time rather than imparting valuable knowledge. The lectures were often tangential, straying far from the course's advertised objectives.
