"Is Privacy Obsolete?"

A conversation moderated by Dr. Robert Kirkman, Director of the Center for Ethics and Technology.

Surveillance is no longer the exception, but the rule. With smart phones, GPS tracking, thermal imaging technologies, etc., what are the limits of surveillance? What information about ourselves should we be able to keep from others? What if holding back is impossible?
