Listen Later

John Nolan examines the expanding surveillance state and emerging technologies that threaten personal privacy. The discussion focuses on Project Echelon, the massive global surveillance network capable of monitoring phone calls, emails, and electronic communications worldwide. Nolan explains how this system operates through international cooperation between intelligence agencies, capturing and analyzing communications using keyword recognition.
