In this episode of Free Speech Friday, I sat with Matthew Guariglia, Senior Policy Analyst at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), to expose how generative AI has democratized mass surveillance.

From the FBI’s massive physical paper filing hangars of the 20th century to modern AI models that scrape your social media, track your geolocation, and predict your political affiliation in seconds—the barrier to entry for government surveillance has officially collapsed.

We dive deep into Guariglia's recent congressional testimony on the AI security landscape, revealing how the Pentagon is blacklisting tech companies like Anthropic for trying to restrict AI from being used in autonomous weapons and mass surveillance.

In this video, we cover:

How AI is automating mass surveillance at an unprecedented scale.
The secret government contracts and the battle for unrestricted AI use.
Why your social media history, geolocation, and purchases create a permanent record.
The historical lessons from Ferguson and the Japanese-American internment that prove data is vulnerability.
What you can do to protect your digital rights (hint: it starts with turning off your geolocation).
