Mass Surveillance

One way or another, financial actors are required by law to
monitor their customers to fight money laundering. That means we
are all under surveillance. Even high profile politicians are
getting tangled up in this monitoring network as well. Insiders
take us behind the scenes of that surveillance machinery, powered
sometimes by automated systems. For a good cause? Welcome to
False Positives - a podcast series by Agence France-Presse and
Algorithm Watch. Episode #2 : Mass Surveillance.

This podcast was based on a six month investigation conducted in
the framework of the AlgorithmWatch Algorithmic Accountability
Reporting fellowship. AlgorithmWatch is a non-profit organization
based in Berlin and Zurich that fights to ensure that use of
algorithms and Artificial Intelligence benefits the many, not
just the few. Agence France-Presse, a leading global news
agency present in 150 countries, contributed with additional
research and fact-checking in the UK, France and Turkey, as well
as the production of the podcast.
