From Doorbell Cameras to Seized Crypto

from Hacker And The Fed Hosted by Chris Tarbell & Hector Monsegur

Chris and Hector take on the uneasy space where privacy, technology, and law enforcement overlap. They break down how encrypted data was accessed through BitLocker recovery keys, how doorbell cameras are quietly becoming part of policing and immigration enforcement, and how an alleged insider siphoned millions in seized cryptocurrency from government controlled wallets.
