About this episode
Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about FBI Director Kash Patel admitting to Congress that the Bureau is buying American’s location data and using it to generate valuable intelligence. That’s concerning, because commercially available information can be used in tremendously invasive ways and the FBI can buy it without needing a warrant.
They also discuss the FCC’s surprising move to ban foreign-made consumer routers. It’s not about security, it is just about reshoring manufacturing.
And finally they discuss the Trump administration’s plan for unleashing the private sector.
