How to dismantle the growing machinery of mass surveillance
In short: Lawyer and technologist Albert Fox Cahn explains why modern data collection is more invasive than most realize and offers a roadmap for building legal firewalls to protect our privacy.
The video explores the crude tactics used by law enforcement to sweep up vast quantities of data from our everyday technology. Cahn focuses on the dangers of tools like geofence warrants and argues that while the current trajectory leads toward a surveillance dystopia, the solutions involve implementing new legal protections to safeguard the public.
