My guest today is Cyrus Farivar, a Senior Tech Policy Reporter at Ars Technica, radio producer and author of “Habeas Data: Privacy vs. the Rise of Surveillance Tech.” Cyrus sees the privacy battle as an ever winding, never-ending road. Privacy is hard, national security is hard, law enforcement is hard but Cyrus is optimistic we can strike a good balance between all three.

The topic is his book Habeas Data: Privacy vs. the Rise of Surveillance Tech.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Privacy by design
  • Facial recognition
  • Capturing phone meta data
  • Unreasonable search and seizure
  • Apple’s security technology
  • Radical transparency vs. total privacy
  • NSA
  • Edward Snowden
  • Google Maps
