Fireside chat with Director Marc Meillassoux
summary
Documentaries contrast a lab-style data op with real-world effects: investigators installed spyware on a smartphone and used phone location, browsing and metadata to reconstruct daily life and relationships; analysts reproduce intimate patterns in days that machines now scale. A crypto party yields a PGP key, a teenager spins a fediverse/Mastodon project that survives with hackathons, and Disappear and Nothing to Hide reach about 400 screenings under Creative Commons while raising alarms about source protection and the potential extradition of Julian Assange.
