Description

Do any areas of our lives escape surveillance anymore? 21st century citizens are the focus of prying eyes, whether they agree to it or not. From citizen security camera networks in New Orleans to the NSA's mass data collection and digital espionage programs, surveillance is becoming synonymous with personal and national security. Meanwhile, Google, Amazon, Apple, and Facebook record user data that's secretly sold for marketing purposes or provided to the Department of Homeland Security-raising questions of democracy and constitutionality. This documentary identifies the stakes and scandals of global surveillance and opens up the debate on our threatened individual freedoms.
