Episode Synopsis

 During this episode, Ken discusses a concerning development involving the surveillance company Flock. Flock is seeking to partner with the dash cam manufacturer Nexar to gain access to a vast database of images—specifically, what they describe as "trillions of images'—collected from private vehicle dash cams. This initiative raises significant privacy issues, as many consumers are unaware that their dash cam footage is being gathered, stored, and potentially sold to law enforcement agencies without their explicit consent. Ken emphasizes the importance of strengthening privacy protections for consumers. He advocates for clear, accessible opt-out options, so individuals have control over their personal data and can prevent it from being monetized without their informed approval.
