Description
After 9/11 we saw one of the most sophisticated surveillance apparatus the world had ever seen. And the surveillance that will come with the COVID-19 pandemic will be even bigger.
This will be under-the-skin surveillance. So we need to start conversations to figure this beast out and find a way forward.
This is precisely the reason this show exists.
