Everything's Recording Everybody: What Now? | The Vergecast

In this episode of The Vergecast, David and The Verge's Victoria Song discuss the implications of a world where everything, everywhere, might be recording. Meta recently shipped a pair of smart glasses with no camera, a change that both David and Victoria are excited about. However, other devices like Amazon's new product from Bee and seemingly everything else are still ready and willing to record the world around you at all times. The conversation explores the tension between the convenience of always-on recording and the privacy concerns it raises. They ask whether tech companies can figure out a way to make us feel better about it, and what societal norms might emerge. The episode also touches on the Signal Awards and encourages listeners to vote for Vergecast. This episode is essential listening for anyone concerned about privacy, technology, and the future of surveillance. Subscribe to The Vergecast for more discussions on the latest in tech and science.
