Bonus: 'We're just data'

Hello, we’re coming to you with a bonus episode! This episode adds on to our previous discussion in ‘One of many: China's social credit system.’ We actually recommend that you give this one a listen first, since it’s a broader overview of surveillance systems as they exist worldwide, and how government and corporations use our data to track us. We get into the cultural context in which China’s system exists, and why Chinese citizens are mostly okay with their system.

This episode comes on the heels of news reports this week that the EU is planning to regulate the use of AI for mass surveillance and social credit systems, which will set it apart from China and the US in that respect.
