The app that fights for your data privacy rights

Ben and Ryan sit down with public interest technologist Sukhi Gulati Gilbert, a senior product manager at Consumer Reports, for a conversation about digital data privacy. They talk about why digital privacy matters, the challenges consumers face in safeguarding their data, and the legislative gaps in privacy protection, along with the app Sukhi is working, Permission Slip, that helps users exercise their rights to digital data privacy. Plus: Why it might be worth reducing your digital footprint.
