EFA Talks with Malcolm Crompton & Pas Forgione - The many dimensions of Mass Surveillance

In this EFA Talks we discuss the many dimensions of mass surveillance from the cashless society to immunity passports.

What would a cashless society look like? Can privacy survive with this constant, ever-growing push for total surveillance ? Can democracy even exist?
