DISCUSSION GROUPS<br />
The Surveillance State:<br />
Big Data, Freedom and You<br />
NEW!<br />
Have you ever felt that your need for privacy was superseded by<br />
the government’s need to know? This Great Courses Lecture Series<br />
on DVD by Paul Rosenzweig, J. D., explores the delicate balance<br />
between transparency and the value of the freedoms on which<br />
America was founded. Mr. Rosenzweig will discuss how our ever<br />
changing surveillance programs are struggling to function within<br />
the bounds of the law.<br />
Paul Rosenzweig, J.D., is a cum laude graduate of University of<br />
Chicago Law School. He lectures on cybersecurity law and policy<br />
at George Washington University Law School. He asks the thought<br />
provoking question “Can technology, security and civil liberty coexist<br />
in the digital age?” Be a part of the discussion group to get a<br />
close up view of what information is being gathered on the average<br />
American citizen.<br />
During this lecture series you will delve into topics covering everything<br />
from the legal framework for surveillance, to the structure<br />
of the U.S. intelligence community, to the myriad technologies<br />
that capture and analyze data such as drones and cell phones.<br />
The course offers a framework for answering many of the<br />
security questions you already have, such as ‘Who watches the<br />
watchers?’ and ‘Who actually owns the data collected?’. While<br />
Mr. Rosenzweig’s lectures may not fully answer these and other<br />
question that arise regarding this subject, he does offer tools and<br />
examples to assist your ability to understand and draw your own<br />
conclusion to these issues. Take steps toward empowering your<br />
future by being part of this discussion group.<br />
