In this episode, Olivia Troye breaks down how your boarding pass, face scan, and credit card swipe feed a sprawling surveillance machine—designed by defense contractors, implemented by DHS, and quietly bankrolled by the very airlines we trust.
She connects the dots between ARC's billion-ticket data sale, TSA’s expanding facial recognition systems, the 75-year biometric storage in DHS’s HART database, and the growing influence of Palantir—where former Trump officials like Stephen Miller now hold financial stakes.
This isn’t about national security. It’s about unchecked power, shadow systems, and personal profit at the expense of your privacy.
