State of Surveillance | Bigger Than Five - a podcast by TRT World

We’re encouraged to tag our photos on social media and use our face to open our phones. Governments are scanning crowds to find suspected criminals and missing people, but also to surveil activists, protesters and ethnic minorities. Facial recognition is rapidly expanding, but will its unregulated use create a new technological wild west? Have we found the balance between privacy, human rights and safety?
Guests:James Craig- Detroit Police Chief
Kenneth Roth- Executive Director of Human Rights WatchSharon Bradford Franklin, Policy Director at New America’s Open Technology Institute #BiggerThanFive
