The fact that Muslims, and especially Muslim activists are subject to monitoring and their privacy often violated due to anti-terror allowances is well known.

But how deep and how far do these violations of privacy, data sharing and profiling go, and at what expense?

Phantom Parrot is a new documentary covering the trials and tribulations of activists at the hands of security authorities, and is also an actual intelligence program which sought, among other things, to invade the private lives of a number of activists to monitor their movements and restrict their capacity to travel and speak. Mohammed Rabbani was one of those activists, and his arguments against the alleged right of security authorities to obtain passwords and private information of suspects, are well known.

 

Anas Altikriti talks with him about this new documentary and about his own work on the encroachment of intelligence authorities into our private lives.
