In a stunning tour de force of investigative reporting, Ford Rowan, a journalist for NBC News in Washington, D.C., uncovers the world of the technospies, the giant computer networks that collect and process information about each and every American from birth to death.
Rowan describes the new cameras, sensors, transmitters, and transponders that make it easier to keep track of people and collect even more information for the computer databanks - for instance, a high-in-the-sky satellite so sensitive that it can count the seeds in an apple, and surgical implants that report an individual’s every movement to a computer.
Military research developed these new computer capabilities and the new surveillance devices. Today, computers can talk to one another, share information, and call upon one another to help solve complex problems. This new artificial intelligence technology is now shared with intelligence agencies, law enforcement, governmental departments, and private businesses.
The author, a graduate of Georgetown University and a member of the Maryland bar, warns us that as records proliferate and are shared, it becomes easier to predict our behavior, and we slip further away from the rugged individualism cherished by most Americans. The capability of the public and private sectors to know what we are doing can have a chilling effect on our willingness to speak out, try new things, and develop new products and solutions to problems.
