About this episode

16:33 In Summary
We never should’ve let faceless companies and governments into our living rooms and bedrooms. The damage is deep, but it’s not irreversible. It starts with awareness. It’s time to blow the lid off the surveillance quietly woven into our lives, and start taking back control.
