Next time you’re driving, take a look around and you might notice you’re being watched. From cameras atop traffic lights to license plate readers, surveillance technology has quietly crept into cities and towns across the state.

Guests:

• Matthew Guariglia: Senior Policy Analyst for the Electronic Frontier Foundation
• Ojala Naeem: Town Councilor for Windsor, Connecticut
• Arman Haidari: Citizen activist and resident of West Hartford, Connecticut
• Eric Weiner: Citizen activist and resident of Windsor, Connecticut
