DaVinci Labs - The Surveillance Society May 21, 2012

We are being watched.

How we surf the web is being recorded.
How we purchase goods is being studied.
Our daily movements are being scrutinized as we stop at the gas station, go to the movies, or even just sit at home watching television.

Marketers, HR departments, and even our government knows who we speak with, what we talk about, and whether or not our actions represent a sales opportunity or a threat. How long before we go to the gas station and the screen at the pump recommends our favorite candy bar? And how in the world does the gas pump know that you prefer a Kit Kat to a Twix?

Join us at DaVinci Labs as we explore how much privacy we have sacrificed in the name of modern convenience and safety. We will be discussing who is tracking our movements, whether or not they represent a threat to our civil liberties, and how we can take steps to be both safe and maintain a comfortable level of privacy in our daily lives.

Join the discussion on May 21st.
