What happens when deleted memories are no longer truly gone? In this episode of The Valley Current®, host Jack Russo examines a high-stakes 2026 legal showdown involving former President Biden, recovered memoir recordings, and a government effort to release deeply personal audio to the public. This is not just a political story, it's a warning about the collapse of digital privacy itself. As courts grapple with forensic recovery, FOIA battles, and allegations of shifting government justifications, a larger question emerges: if even a former president must race to court to stop private recordings from becoming public, who is protecting the rest of us? From "practical obscurity" to the legal limits of transparency, this episode explores whether privacy rights can survive in an age where delete may no longer mean delete.

 Are your child's school records really private? In Massachusetts, federal and state laws work together to protect sensitive student information while giving families the right to review and correct education records. Understanding these protections can help parents and students confidently navigate an increasingly digital education system. 

Eugene Volokh and Jane Bambauer unpack the complicated and often uncomfortable relationship between free speech and privacy, exploring everything from anonymous political pamphlets and government surveillance to revenge porn, hidden cameras, autobiographies, celebrity likeness rights, wiretap laws, and the constitutional limits of “the right to be left alone.” Along the way, they dive into landmark Supreme Court cases, the origins of American privacy law, Hulk Hogan's takedown of Gawker, the legality of recording police, and why seemingly simple questions like “Who owns your life story?” turn into some of the thorniest conflicts in First Amendment law.  Subscribe for the latest on free speech, censorship, social media, AI, and the evolving role of the First Amendment in today's proverbial town square. 

Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., is demanding answers from the Commerce Department over concerns tied to NSO Group's Pegasus spyware technology. The surveillance tools have reportedly been used to target journalists, activists and government officials worldwide, raising new questions about possible domestic use in the United States.

As the U.S. Congress approves a short-term reauthorization of the FISA 702 surveillance program, it's more important than ever that Americans have a way to safeguard their constitutionally protected data from government spies. Matt Kibbe is joined by Naomi Brockwell, founder and president of the Ludlow Institute, to discuss the need for expanded privacy protections in the digital age. The Fourth Amendment was originally concerned with private papers and possessions, long before the internet existed, but the fact that communications are now digital should not mean that we lose the rights that the founders intended to give us. To that end, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has introduced the Surveillance Accountability Act to rein in government spying and restore basic civil liberties to the American people.

Welcome to the Ms. Book Club! Join authors as they delve into feminist books exploring topics ranging from the child welfare system to human rights to the intersections of race and the law.Today, we're joined by Khiara M. Bridges to discuss her recent book Expecting Inequity: How the Maternal Health Crisis Affects Even the Wealthiest Black Americans. Bridges draws on two years of participant-observation to show how wealthier Black people try to leverage their class privilege to avoid some of the negative effects of their blackness—only to discover that in a country that has never reckoned with its horrific racial past, there is no escaping racism's reach. Throughout the book, engaging, heartbreaking, infuriating stories of women's experiences with pregnancy and prenatal care illustrate how race and racism matter regardless of wealth or status.Joining us this episode is our very special guest:Khiara M. Bridges: Khiara M. Bridges is a professor of law at UC Berkeley School of Law. In addition to Expecting Inequity, she is the author of Reproducing Race: An Ethnography of Pregnancy as a Site of Racialization (2011), The Poverty of Privacy Rights (2017), and Critical Race Theory: A Primer (2019).Check out this episode's landing page at MsMagazine.com for a full transcript, links to articles referenced in this episode, further reading and ways to take action.

Will SCOTUS allow law enforcement to use Geofence and keyword warrants to violate the Fourth Amendment and usurp digital privacy rights?

Jaws of Justice Radio investigates how we can achieve justice from a system of laws deeply rooted in economic, social and political inequality.  We want to dispel misconceptions created by the news and entertainment industry, politicians and our educational system. We hope you will listen. Host Terri Wilke speaks with author Cindy Cohn about her new book, Privacy's Defender, My Thirty-Year Fight Against Digital Surveillance and her work as executive director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which is the world's biggest and oldest digital rights organization. https://www.eff.org/Privacys-Defender Cindy Cohn recounts the fight against sweeping government surveillance after 9/11, her reservations about internet regulations backfiring if placed in the wrong hands, and why the solution to these problems is a combination of comprehensive privacy law, revised business models of giant tech companies who make money off of user data, and more platform choices for individuals. Part memoir and part legal history for the general reader, the book is a compelling testament to just how hard-won the privacy rights we now enjoy as tech users are, and also how crucial these rights are in our efforts to combat authoritarianism, grow democracy, and strengthen other human rights. Cindy Cohn is an American civil liberties attorney specializing in Internet law. She has served as executive director for the Electronic Frontier Foundation since 2015.   In the second part of our hour, I will speak with the Rev. Phil Woodson, Pastor, Stilwell United Methodist Church, Stilwell, Kansas and Dianna Heffernon, church member and retired teacher. They will talk about the Saturday, May 2, 2026 event, Guns to Gardens Kansas City, from 1 – 3 PM at the Stilwell United Methodist Church, 19335 Metcalf Ave, Stilwell, KS 66085 This event welcomes everyone who wants an opportunity to dispose of unwanted firearms safely, responsibly, and anonymously. Grocery store gift cards will be offered in appreciation for safely disposing of firearms, while supplies last. https://www.gunstogardenskc.org/ On Jaws of Justice, we examine how to find justice in our society.  Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.

None of Your Goddamn BusinessJohn Morgan Salomon said something during our conversation that I haven't stopped thinking about. We were discussing encryption, privacy laws, the usual terrain — and he cut through all of it with five words: "It's none of your goddamn business."Not elegant. Not diplomatic. But exactly right.John has spent 30 years in information security. He's Swiss, lives in Spain, advises governments and startups, and uses his real name on social media despite spending his career thinking about privacy. When someone like that tells you he's worried, you should probably pay attention.The immediate concern is something called "Chat Control" — a proposed EU law that would mandate access to encrypted communications on your phone. It's failed twice. It's now in its third iteration. The Danish Information Commissioner is pushing it. Germany and Poland are resisting. The European Parliament is next.The justification is familiar: child abuse materials, terrorism, drug trafficking. These are the straw man arguments that appear every time someone wants to break encryption. And John walked me through the pattern: tragedy strikes, laws pass in the emotional fervor, and those laws never go away. The Patriot Act. RIPA in the UK. The Clipper Chip the FBI tried to push in the 1990s. Same playbook, different decade.Here's the rhetorical trap: "Do you support terrorism? Do you support child abuse?" There's only one acceptable answer. And once you give it, you've already conceded the frame. You're now arguing about implementation rather than principle.But the principle matters. John calls it the panopticon — the Victorian-era prison design where all cells face inward toward a central guard tower. No walls. Total visibility. The transparent citizen. If you can see what everyone is doing, you can spot evil early. That's the theory.The reality is different. Once you build the infrastructure to monitor everyone, the question becomes: who decides what "evil" looks like? Child pornographers, sure. Terrorists, obviously. But what about LGBTQ individuals in countries where their existence is criminalized? John told me about visiting Chile in 2006, where his gay neighbor could only hold his partner's hand inside a hidden bar. That was a democracy. It was also a place where being yourself was punishable by prison.The targets expand. They always do. Catholics in 1960s America. Migrants today. Anyone who thinks differently from whoever holds power at any given moment. These laws don't just catch criminals — they set precedents. And precedents outlive the people who set them.John made another point that landed hard: the privacy we've already lost probably isn't coming back. Supermarket loyalty cards. Surveillance cameras. Social media profiles. Cookie consent dialogs we click through without reading. That version of privacy is dead. But there's another kind — the kind that prevents all that ambient data from being weaponized against you as an individual. The kind that stops your encrypted messages from becoming evidence of thought crimes. That privacy still exists. For now.Technology won't save us. John was clear about that. Neither will it destroy us. Technology is just an element in a much larger equation that includes human nature, greed, apathy, and the willingness of citizens to actually engage. He sent emails to 40 Spanish members of European Parliament about Chat Control. One responded.That's the real problem. Not the law. Not the technology. The apathy.Republic comes from "res publica" — the thing of the people. Benjamin Franklin supposedly said it best: "A republic, if you can keep it." Keeping it requires attention. Requires understanding what's at stake. Requires saying, when necessary: this is none of your goddamn business.Stay curious. Stay Human. Subscribe to the podcast.

An anti-fascist spy handed American officials evidence of murderous intent from a Nazi planning server — and they declined to act.About the GuestChristopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right, formerly a senior reporter at HuffPost, with work appearing in The Guardian, The Nation, MSNBC, Zeteo, and WNYC. His reporting has helped unmask white supremacist cops, soldiers, teachers, and politicians, and he was a Deadline Awards finalist for feature writing. He is originally from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and lives in New York. His new book, To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right (Atria Books), is out now.About the EpisodeDays after Jonathan Rauch's influential Atlantic essay announced he'd moved from fascism skeptic to fascism believer, Christopher Mathias joins the show to discuss his new book — a deeply reported investigation into the decentralized network of anti-fascist activists who infiltrate, monitor, and expose neo-Nazis and white supremacists operating in positions of power across America.The conversation quickly moves beyond whether Trump is a fascist to the harder questions his book raises: Who gets to decide who is exposed? What rights to privacy do members of extremist groups retain? Is unmasking community self-defense or vigilantism? And does the same logic that justifies exposing a neo-Nazi EMT extend to the tens of thousands of ICE agents now conducting raids on American streets?Timeline00:00 Introduction Jonathan Rauch's Atlantic essay and the renewed fascism debate01:10 Meet Christopher Mathias Introducing the book and the journalist behind it01:45 The Greenville Moment When Mathias first used “fascist” in a headline after watching Trump whip a crowd into chanting “Send her back”02:40 Defining the F-Word Fascism as a right-wing politics of domination; Langston Hughes recognizing it in the 1930s before the word arrived04:15 The Hard Question If MAGA is a fascist movement, are the 70-plus million who voted for Trump fascists too?05:55 The Worst of the Worst Why the book targets explicit neo-Nazis in positions of power, not ordinary Trump supporters08:15 Who Decides? Privacy, accountability, and whether everyone at Charlottesville deserves exposure10:45 Antifascist Amnesty Leave the movement and we leave you alone; return and we publish12:30 The Equivalence Trap Why Mathias rejects the idea that this is just radicals exposing radicals14:05 From Neo-Nazis to ICE How anti-fascist tactics are now used to identify masked federal agents17:15 Where Does It End? Drawing lines between violent enforcement and bureaucratic participation19:40 “Just Following Orders” Why some orders shouldn't be followed, and the occupation of Minneapolis21:30 The Battle Over Shame Competing databases, surveillance, and what America should be ashamed of23:15 The Spy Who Warned Charlottesville An infiltrator uncovers plans for violence that officials ignore26:00 Minneapolis as Model “We protect us” and a blueprint for grassroots resistance28:45 The Underground War Intelligence, counterintelligence, and the personal cost of exposure30:30 Closing Fascism as a snake eating its own tail and the urgent task of limiting the damageLinks & ReferencesMentioned in this episode:Jonathan Rauch, “Yes, It's Fascism” — The Atlantic (January 2026)To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right by Christopher Mathias (Atria Books, February 2026)Christopher Mathias reporting archiveFollow Christopher Mathias: BlueSky | XAbout Keen On America Nobody asks more impertinent questions than the Anglo-American writer, filmmaker and Silicon Valley entrepreneur Andrew Keen.

Geofence and keyword warrants are used by law enforcement to usurp digital privacy rights and demand that companies turn over information on cellphones.

What if respect isn't something we owe to power, but something power owes to us? We start with a listener's challenge - “say one nice thing about Trump” - and follow the thread through the messy intersection of office, behavior, and accountability. Titles don't launder harm, and a single human moment can't offset a pattern of contempt. From there, we look at how policy choices reveal priorities: a proposed five‑year social media review for visa waiver travelers as North America prepares for the World Cup and the Olympics. The contradiction is stark - inviting the world to celebrate while signaling suspicion at the border - and it raises real questions about free expression, privacy, and soft power.We also zoom in on shifting political ground at home, from Miami's new Democratic mayor to a heavyweight Texas primary shaped by gerrymandering and court decisions. Then we widen back to Central America, where Honduras faces a pivotal choice between corruption and hardline order. We talk candidly about security, due process, and the risks of letting fear do the policymaking. Power without guardrails breeds hypocrisy; pardoning a convicted trafficker while pushing extrajudicial force is the definition of mixed signals.Underneath these stories runs a deeper current: empathy fatigue. A San Diego freeway closure for a suicidal man triggered more outrage over delays than concern for a life in crisis. We connect that brittleness to our unprocessed pandemic grief and the way social media rewards performative cruelty as often as it amplifies care. And because joy is part of the antidote, we end with a Hallmark curveball - yes, a firefighter, two cats, and a soft landing. Comfort isn't an escape from seriousness; it's fuel for showing up with more humanity the next day.If this resonates, share it with a friend, hit follow, and leave us a review with one takeaway you're still thinking about.

Send us a textDo you know that AI is already integrated into nearly everything we do online? From the devices in our kids' classrooms to the apps on our phones—artificial intelligence is part of daily life. In this episode, Alexis sits down with Dr. Jeff Carlson to unpack what AI in education really means and where Idaho can go from here.Together, they trace the timeline of technology, social media, and now AI—three distinct but connected “buckets” that shape how students learn, how parents engage, and how schools make decisions.Key themes include:How to inform and empower parents about AI in schools—without assuming support or opposition.What data privacy and transparency should look like for kids under 18.The limits of opting out—and whether it's even possible in today's digital learning environment.How AI intersects with mental health, student well-being, and policy design.Practical questions every parent should be able to ask about their child's tech use.Dr. Carlson challenges us to look beyond the fear and lean into understanding—because ignoring AI may be riskier than engaging with it thoughtfully. This is a conversation about shared responsibility, transparency, and what it means to prepare our kids (and ourselves) for an AI-shaped future.

From election results that don't match voter sentiment to fears of the dark that reveal our primal survival instincts, this episode dives into the forces shaping modern America. We unpack alleged census manipulation that could have stolen up to 25 congressional seats, explore the upcoming Supreme Court race-based redistricting case, and reveal how distorted districts affect budgets, taxation, and representation. Then, we pivot to human nature, examining why men report greater fear of the dark, the evolutionary roots of this instinct, and archaeological evidence showing the dangers our ancestors faced. Finally, we highlight emerging threats to personal freedom, including digital IDs, facial recognition, and the erosion of anonymity in America and abroad.

The promise of the American Dream—work hard, play by the rules, and you'll get ahead—is unraveling before our eyes. In this Back-to-Basics episode, Christian H. Cooper and law professor Khiara Bridges join Nick and Goldy to posit whether economic mobility has ever truly existed, or if the system was rigged from the start. As wages stagnate, homeownership drifts out of reach, and inequality worsens, their conversation exposes how the American Dream has always been selectively granted and systematically denied. Amid today's debates over “competitiveness” and “opportunity,” this episode is a reminder: the American Dream didn't disappear by accident—it's been taken. Understanding how is the first step toward winning it back. Christian Cooper is a derivatives trader, quantitative finance author, and commentator based in New York City. He directs Banking for a New Beginning, a collaboration between the Aspen Institute and the U.S. Department of State that connects central banks in emerging markets—such as Turkey, Tunisia, and Pakistan—with best practices to strengthen their financial systems Khiara M. Bridges is an anthropologist and professor of law at UC Berkeley School of Law, specializing in race, class, reproductive rights, and constitutional law.

John Kiriakou, former CIA officer and whistleblower against the agency's  torture program, discusses his extensive background in intelligence, the evolving role of technology and AI in intelligence operations, and the balance between privacy and national security. John details his experience with the CIA's torture program post-9/11, and the consequences he's faced for exposing these practices. Key Takeaways: How targeted intelligence can succeed without mass surveillance, and how national security doesn't need to mean sacrificing individual privacy The evolution of drone warfare in military options, and how its crossed moral lines The dangers posed by AI in intelligence, and the need for ethical considerations in the application of AI The current state of the US Patriot Act, and the implications of technology in media Guest Bio: John Kiriakou is a former CIA officer, former senior investigator for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and former counterterrorism consultant for ABC News. He was responsible for the capture in Pakistan in 2002 of Abu Zubaydah, believed to be the third-ranking official in al-Qaeda. In 2007, Kiriakou exposed the CIA's torture program, saying that the CIA tortured prisoners, had become official U.S. government policy, and that this policy had been approved by then-President George W. Bush. He became the sixth whistleblower indicted by the Obama administration under the Espionage Act—a law designed to punish spies—and served 23 months in prison as a result. Kiriakou is the author of eight books, including The Reluctant Spy: My Secret Life in the CIA's War on Terror; Doing Time Like a Spy: How the CIA Taught Me to Survive and Thrive in Prison; and The Convenient Terrorist: Abu Zubaydah and the Weird Wonderland of America's Secret Wars. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About this Show: The Brave Technologist is here to shed light on the opportunities and challenges of emerging tech.

In this crossover episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast and Regulatory Oversight, Chris Willis, Kim Phan, and Stephen Piepgrass provide insights on a new joint privacy task force among several state AGs, known as the Consortium of Privacy Regulators. The consortium recently outlined goals to share state resources and align enforcement priorities regarding consumer harm and privacy rights. In response to an anticipated shift of regulatory scrutiny from federal agencies to state leaders, this episode focuses on specific steps financial services companies should consider when dealing with consumer privacy, data, complaints, and inquiries to ensure compliance and mitigate potential investigations and enforcement actions.

This lecture provides a comprehensive overview of the constitutional foundations of criminal procedure law, focusing on the Fourth Amendment. It explores the sources of criminal procedure, the significance of judicial interpretation, and the balance between law enforcement and individual rights. Key topics include the definitions of searches and seizures, warrant requirements, exceptions to these requirements, and the implications of modern technology on privacy rights. The lecture concludes with a discussion on the exclusionary rule and its impact on the justice system.TakeawaysThe Fourth Amendment establishes protections against unreasonable searches and seizures.Judicial decisions play a crucial role in interpreting constitutional provisions.The concept of reasonable expectation of privacy is central to Fourth Amendment analysis.Warrants must be issued by a neutral magistrate based on probable cause.Exceptions to the warrant requirement include searches incident to arrest and exigent circumstances.The exclusionary rule prevents illegally obtained evidence from being used in court.The good faith exception allows some leeway for law enforcement actions.Modern technology poses new challenges to Fourth Amendment protections.The open fields doctrine limits privacy rights in areas outside the home.Policy debates continue regarding the balance between law enforcement and individual rights.Criminal Procedure, Fourth Amendment, Searches, Seizures, Warrant Requirements, Exclusionary Rule, Privacy Rights, Law Enforcement, Constitutional Law, Judicial Interpretation

Preston Van Loon, an Ethereum core developer, joins The Defiant Podcast this week to discuss his role as a plaintiff in the high-profile Tornado Cash lawsuit against the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). He described how the sanctions imposed on Tornado Cash impacted legitimate users seeking privacy on Ethereum and underscored the significance of a recent appellate court ruling questioning whether smart contracts qualify as “property” under U.S. sanctions law. Van Loon also noted the possibility of a friendlier regulatory environment in the United States, suggesting that changing policy stances could spur crypto innovation. Finally, he addressed ongoing discussions within the Ethereum community about development priorities, governance structures, and the challenges of maintaining a decentralized protocol as the ecosystem grows.

We plug into the real world Matrix – the digital Wild West of surveillance capitalism that dominates this Age of Information. Behind it is the unholy alliance between Big Tech and Big Brother. Privacy is the first casualty and democracy dies with it. Our guide is Cindy Cohn, director of Electronic Frontier Foundation, with her decades of experience challenging digital authoritarianism. Featuring Cindy Cohn, the Executive Director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation since 2015, served as EFF's Legal Director as well as its General Counsel from 2000 to 2015. Among other honors, Ms. Cohn was named to The Non-Profit Times 2020 Power & Influence TOP 50 list, and in 2018, Forbes included Ms. Cohn as one of America's Top 50 Women in Tech.

Can AI relationships redefine intimacy, or are they a threat to genuine human connections? Join Nathan Mumm and Mike Gourdet on Tech Time Radio as we venture into the ever-evolving world of technology, where the lines between human and machine blur. From the Senate's upcoming debate on AI surveillance and data rights to the surprising story of a Waymo self-driving car getting pulled over, this episode promises to keep you on the edge of your seat. Expect a mix of thought-provoking insights and light-hearted moments, like the quirky possibility of Alexa judging your music taste and the buzz around a real retractable lightsaber.Our deep dive into the bipartisan American Privacy Rights Act reveals how this legislation, led by Maria Cantwell and Kathy McMorris-Rogers, could revolutionize consumer data control. With provisions enabling users to opt-out of targeted advertising and seek financial damages for data breaches, the bill could reshape our digital interactions. We draw parallels with the UK's GDPR, discuss the potential commercialization of AI services like Bing's Copilot, and underscore the critical need for AI regulations to protect consumer rights and prevent unforeseen consequences.The ethical implications of AI relationships take center stage as we explore the growing trend of AI-powered chatbots as therapists and companions. Leveraging insights from MIT sociologist Sherry Turkle, we scrutinize the dangers of "artificial intimacy" and its impact on real human connections. A compelling case study highlights the risks of substituting human interaction with machine feedback, raising significant privacy and data security concerns. All this, plus a nostalgic look back at the release of Netscape Navigator and a sneak peek at our upcoming Geek Fest, makes for an unmissable episode.

In this episode of American Potential, host Jeff Crank sits down with James Czerniawski to delve into the controversial and often misunderstood realm of U.S. government surveillance. They explore the implications of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), specifically Section 702, which allows the U.S. government to collect and analyze communications from non-U.S. persons outside the country without a warrant. This practice, however, often results in the collection of American citizens' data, raising significant privacy concerns.   James Czerniawski breaks down the history and evolution of FISA, illustrating how the quest for national security has sometimes encroached upon personal privacy. The conversation sheds light on how these surveillance practices impact everyday Americans and what reforms are necessary to protect individual freedoms while maintaining security.   Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the balance between national security and personal privacy in the digital age.   Check out American Potential here: https://americanpotential.com   Check out our Spanish episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8wSZydeKZ6uOuFlT_1QQ53L7l6AmC83c   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmericanPotentialPodcast    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/americanpotentialpodcast/   X: https://twitter.com/AMPotentialPod

Congress has been working on comprehensive federal data privacy legislation for decades without reaching agreement. But the finish line may be closer today than before. With the recent introduction of the American's Privacy Rights Act (APRA), the chairs of the Senate and House Commerce Committees announced a bipartisan compromise, hoping to end the legislative stalemate.Our panel of data privacy experts will take a deeper look at APRA, including its provisions and implications. Who wins and who loses in APRA's mix of provisions from preemption to enforcement? Is the decision to embrace regulation of algorithmic decision-making a deal maker or breaker? And does it stand a chance of passing in an election year? Tune in to hear our panelists explore the ongoing dynamic of federal privacy legislation in the United States.Register and Join the webinar on May 23rd at 3 pm EST.

Subcommittee on Innovation, Data, and Commerce held a hearing: “Legislative Solutions to Protect Kids Online and Ensure Americans' Data Privacy Rights.” Between the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and the American Privacy Rights Act (APRA), both of which have bipartisan and bicameral support, Congress may be closer to acting on the issues than it has been recent memory.One of the witnesses that the hearing was David Brody, who is managing attorney of the Digital Justice Initiative of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Justin Hendrix caught up with Brody the day after the hearing, we spoke about the challenges of advancing the American Privacy Rights Act, and why he connects fundamental data to privacy rights to so many of the other issues that the Lawyers' Committee cares about, including voting rights and how to counter disinformation that targets communities of color.
