About this episode

Hosts explore the transformation of a historic Remington gun plant into an AI data center and discuss the implications for privacy and environmental risks.

Hosts explore the irony of turning a historic Remington gun plant into an AI data center and unpack how hyperscale data centers, flock cameras, and signal-tracing tech collect and analyze massive amounts of personal data. The episode explains power and cooling needs of modern data centers, environmental risks like wastewater contamination, and privacy threats including pattern-of-life mapping, RFID tracking, and retroactive surveillance—plus practical tips (Faraday bags, RFID-shielded wallets) and calls to research and resist unchecked surveillance. https://10thwhiskey.com/ Enter dearshooter at checkout for 15% off https://www.lucidoptics.com/ https://www.wyotac.com/ Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed here are our own and may not represent those of the companies we represent, or any entity affiliated to it.
