Episode 15: Privacy and Surveillance in the Digital Age

  • Summary

  • The events of 9/11 triggered the world's largest civilian surveillance programs. Now, two decades later, Eden and Andrew pause to assess the consequences of all this on the complex relationship between people, private data, and the government agencies meant to protect us. Is there an ethical balance between individual privacy and public safety? Can using encrypted communications be proof of criminal intent? Should we trust governments and their employees to responsibly handle personal data, and are encryption "backdoors" ever a good idea? Tune in for a civil discourse on these and other hotly contested questions.
