Episode 52: Curtain twitching and surveillance capitalism

Informações:

Synopsis

Curtain twitchers, lockdown Stasi, narcs and snitches; the lockdown has caused many people to internalise surveillance, compete for social capital through rule abidance, and assert themselves by shaming others. But where does surveillance capitalism fit in all of this? Should we be worried about contact tracing apps - and not in a tinfoil hat kinda way? We’re joined by the mighty Liz Carolan to talk about tech and tracing.
