An Index lunchtime discussion on just how much we're being surveilled even at home.
Can people see more than just your bookshelves on Zoom? How up close and personal are those drones getting in the sky? Will contact tracing apps look at more than just encounters with those infected with Covid-19? Join industry experts, journalists and the Index on Censorship magazine team for a discussion about some of the most important issues we face today when it comes to our privacy in the age of coronavirus.
