CDT President & CEO Nuala O'Connor sits down to discuss why Trump's executive order stopping the application of Privacy Act provisions to non-US persons is a critical mistake. She was originally part of the team at the Department of Homeland Security that helped develop the policy, and examines the dangers of it's repeal with host Brian Wesolowski.
Then author and researcher Adam Tanner calls in to give us an understanding of the huge market out there for personal health data and who it is really benefitting. He details his new book, "Our Bodies, Our Data" and shares eye-opening insights most consumers don't know.
