  "description": "If you attend a protest, demonstration or any mass gathering in a public space, the police are probably surveilling you. Whether it\u2019s sophisticated facial recognition, ubiquitous video recording, or the instant analysis of our biometric data, law enforcement agencies are following closely behind their counterparts in the military and intelligence services in acquiring privacy-invasive technologies, from automated license plate readers to body-worn cameras to drones and more.  In this talk, Kurt Opsahl with show you how to identify surveillance technologies in use:\r\n\t\u2022 Where to look for these devices\r\n\t\u2022 How these technologies look\r\n\t\u2022 How these technologies function\r\n\t\u2022 How they are used by police\r\n\t\u2022 What kind of data they collect\r\n\t\u2022 Where to learn more about them\r\nKnowledge is power. Knowing what technologies are in use can help you understand the threats to your privacy and security, as well as tools to advocate for limits on police use of surveillance that may chill people\u2019s rights to express themselves on public issues.  Just as analog surveillance historically has been used as a tool for oppression, policymakers and the public must understand the threat posed by emerging technologies to successfully defend human rights in the digital age.
