About this episode

A Florida cop ran his ex-wife’s plate 717 times on a camera network watching 120,000 American streets. This week, Flock Safety cofounder Garrett Langley admitted police have abused his license plate cameras but insisted Flock isn’t Big Brother. Both can’t be true. Electronic Frontier Foundations’ Dr. Matthew Guariglia joins me to sort out which one is. Plus, a reporter hid an AirTag in a stack of books to find out what Amazon was really doing with them. Spoiler: shredding them to feed AI. And there’s a T. rex involved. Also, a listener dropped her phone in an airplane toilet. She went in after it. Gloved. Elbow deep. The phone survived. Her dignity did not. EPISODE BREAKDOWN: 0:00…
