LIVE DEBATE: Debating the Constitution: Technology and Privacy

Do you have a secret? What about Apple, Google, Facebook, Verizon, or Uber? Are you sure they don't know your secret? Digital data – emails, text messages, phone records, location records, web searches – contain traces of almost every secret. They also contain traces of almost every crime. Tech companies may promise to protect our data from prying eyes. But should that promise yield to law enforcement and national security? Tonight we put these points to the test, in partnership with the National Constitution Center, as we take on the motion: Tech Companies Should Be Required to Help Law Enforcement Execute Search Warrants to Access Customer Data Arguing for the motion, Stewart Baker, attorney and former assistant secretary for policy at the Department of Homeland Security, joins John Yoo, a law professor at University of California Berkeley, and former attorney at the Justice Department. Against them, Catherine Crump, acting director of Samuelson Law, Technology & Public Policy Clinic and professor at Berkeley Law School, joins Michael Chertoff, executive chairman at The Chertoff Group, and former secretary of Homeland Security.
