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

“The privacy rabbit hole never ends. It gets ever ever deeper.” – Cyrus Farivar
