About this episode

A little tracking tag in your bin might seem harmless - but what happens when that data is combined with all the other tech tracking your life? 
 
From profiling your household habits to being used in ways you’d never expect, the risk goes far beyond waste collection. 
 
In part two of this deep dive, Chris Spyrou speaks with former FBI and US intelligence officer turned cybersecurity expert Dr Dennis Desmond on how your everyday data can be harvested, weaponised – and how to protect yourself.
