Shane Harris: Who’s Watching You Now?

Selected By: Bob B

Wednesday, March 3, 2010 | 7:30 – 9pm
Location: Downstairs at Town Hall; enter on Seneca Street.

The Watchers: The Rise of America's Surveillance State.

The rise of America’s surveillance state over the past 25 years highlights a dangerous paradox, says journalist Shane Harris: It’s now harder for the government to catch terrorists, and easier for it to spy on the rest of us. Harris, the intelligence and Homeland Security correspondent at the National Journal and author of The Watchers, says high-tech spycraft has moved from the province of Bush era ‘emergency response measures’ into the mainstream, creating a capacity to gather a disquieting trove of personal information on every American. Presented by Town Hall’s Center for Civic Life, with University Bookstore. Series supported by The Boeing Company Charitable Trust and RealNetworks.

Tickets are $5 at www.brownpapertickets.com or [masked], and at the door beginning at 6:30 pm. Town Hall members receive priority seating. Late seating is not guaranteed.

Overall was information I already knew. Was hoping for more, of going further down the rabbit hole. But what else should I have expected from a mainstream reporter and published work? Was good, just confirming that Big Brother has been watching for a long time, and it's getting worse and that people should care and not let Big Brother get even bigger.
