About this listen
This collection of discussions from the "Business Reform" YouTube channel focuses on the evolving nature of "copaganda"—police propaganda in media—and its intersection with surveillance technology and public perception. Speakers highlight how fictional portrayals, from early police dramas to modern forensic shows, have influenced societal expectations regarding law enforcement capabilities, often exaggerating the efficacy and prevalence of surveillance tools like DNA evidence and ATM footage. The conversation also critically examines the real-world implications of advanced surveillance, such as algorithmic sentencing bias and the potential misuse of personal data collected by smart devices, stressing that technology itself is neutral, but its application by those in power can be problematic if underlying systemic issues are not addressed first. The speakers also recommend fictional works that effectively depict the dangers and realities of surveillance.
