In our previous episode with Cali, we explored some of the most pressing issues facing our digital rights. This time around, we're taking it to the streets - or rather, the screens. Join us as we delve deeper into three crucial topics that will make you rethink your online security and freedom.
First up, we're tackling the issue of biometric authentication: should cops be able to use your fingerprints or facial recognition data to unlock your phone? We'll discuss the implications of this technology on our digital lives and explore the tension between national security and individual privacy.
Next, we're shining a light on the importance of freedom of journalism in the age of social media. With so many "influencers" and content creators online, it's easier than ever to share information - but is that always a good thing? We'll examine the role of independent media in holding power accountable and discuss how we can protect this vital aspect of our democracy.
Finally, we're going back to basics with a revisit of one of the most pivotal figures in modern history: Edward Snowden. What can we learn from his whistleblowing revelations about NSA surveillance and government secrecy? We'll explore the ongoing relevance of Snowden's message and examine what it means for our understanding of the US Constitution and its protections.
