In this episode of Banish Big Brother, Zach and Elizabeth dive into the latest developments in surveillance technology and its implications for personal freedom. They discuss the NFL’s controversial decision to implement facial recognition across all 30 stadiums, exploring what this means for fans, employees, and the future of privacy at major events.
The conversation then shifts to the UK, where recent actions by the government are drawing comparisons to Orwell’s dystopian vision. From the criminalization of online speech to the expanding reach of surveillance, Zach and Elizabeth examine how these trends could shape the future of free expression and personal liberty. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on the growing impact of technology on our rights and freedoms.
