Surveillance Finds a Way
A report from 404 Media examines how surveillance persists or adapts despite legal, technical, or policy barriers meant to limit it.
Why this matters: Surveillance does not stop because a law changes or a tool gets banned. It finds a workaround. That pattern matters because most people assume a court ruling or a policy fix closes the door. It rarely does. The real question is not whether a specific surveillance method is legal today. It is who keeps watching when the rules shift and whether anyone is checking.
