In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde examines the push to mandate surveillance-adjacent safety technology in new cars by 2027, with a sharp focus on the United States. As regulators, automakers, insurers, and privacy advocates clash, one question looms over the future of driving: when your car is built to watch for danger, who else is watching you? Will these systems save lives without turning every commute into a stream of data? And if safety becomes the justification, where should the limits be?
