Tech & AI

Surveillance, spyware and the companies behind them, covered from the point of view of the people being watched. The show’s tech episodes are less about products than about power: who is collecting the data, who is buying it and what it is used for.

Julian’s solo episodes have taken on Flock’s license plate cameras and the spread of mass surveillance, an open invitation to Flock’s CEO to come on the show, Pegasus spyware and the Anthropic story as it broke. The cartel reporting connects here too: Ed Calderon on Pegasus and the drones changing the war in Mexico, Kat Szulc on CJNG’s mass kidnappings, trafficking and the tech around them, and Mariana van Zeller on CJNG’s scam empire.
