👁 Selling Mass Surveillance | EFFector 38.7Time and time again, we've seen police surveillance suffer from 'mission creep'—technology sold as a way to prevent heinous crimes ends up enforcing traffic violations, tracking protestors, and more. In our latest EFFector newsletter, we're diving into this troubling pattern and sharing all the latest in the fight for privacy and free speech online. For over 35 years, EFFector has been your guide to understanding the intersection of technology, civil liberties, and the law. This week's issue covers the urgent need to reform NSA spying; a victory for internet access in the Supreme Court; and how license plate readers are normalizing mass surveillance. Prefer to listen in? EFFector is now available on all major podcast platforms. This time, we're chatting with EFF Privacy Litigation Director Adam Schwartz about some of the recent technologies we've seen suffer from "mission creep." And don't miss the EFFector news quiz!
