Andy Murphy hosts the Secure Family Podcast and explores the future of "connected surveillance networks," including automated license plate readers, facial recognition, store cameras, and home security footage shared into larger systems.

He raises concerns about sloppy or abusive searches, unclear accountability, and whether cameras actually prevent crime. He also discusses risks if a major camera company is sold or changes hands, and what that means for the future.
