NEW 673TA THE SURVEILLANCE STATE – BIG DATA, FREEDOM, AND YOU: Confront the tough questions about who’s out there watching us online-and how we can start watching our own backs. The 21st century has seen remarkable technological advances, with many wonderful benefits. But with these advances come new questions about privacy, security, civil liberties, and more. Big Data is here, which means that government and private industries are collecting massive amounts of information about each of us – information that may be used in marketing, to help solve criminal investigations, and to promote the interests of national security. These 24 revealing lectures tackle the tough questions about surveillance and data in the 21st century. Pandora’s Box has been opened. Taught by Professor Rosenzweig, J.D., professorial lecturer at The George Washington University School of Law, facilitated by Fahim (Fred) Ahmed.
