For your ears only: The politics of privacy
from Sound Politics · host KUOW News and Information
What do you have a right to? Your data? Your gender presentation? Your child’s health information? Between DOGE sifting through our personal data, tech companies tracking our location, and executive orders weighing in on kids’ medical care, local and national politics are challenging Americans’ ideas about privacy and personal autonomy. We talk through what the implications are, and what lawmakers are proposing to do about it, on this week’s episode of Sound Politics. Joining host Scott Greenstone this week are Austin Jenkins, a staff writer at Pluribus News covering state legislatures, and Vivian McCall, staff writer at The Stranger covering queer culture and politics.
