We live in a world where Starbucks can tell you the closest spot to grab a Frappuccino, Google maps knows the quickest route home, and Facebook ads are curated to your personal taste and style. If all this information is out in the open, is privacy in this world becoming virtually obsolete?
This week, Ben and Greg are looking at what it truly means to be private in this deeply digital age, talking about the future of human security, liberty, and privacy. Now more than ever, our high-tech dreams of personal video security systems, endless databases of entertainment, and personalized digital media are coming to fruition thanks to modern ingenuity. But the cost of an interactive digital sphere may be beyond the boundaries of your personal space.
