Über diesen Titel
Why do more aspects of everyday life seem to be drifting toward criminalization? In this episode, we challenge the comforting myth that the past was simply more tolerant. Instead, we explore a harder truth: law often expands not because morality changes, but because enforcement technology advances. When surveillance becomes cheap, automated, and continuous, the question shifts from “Should this be illegal?” to “Why not enforce it, now that we can?”
From data-integration platforms used by federal agencies to real-time license plate tracking, we examine how modern surveillance infrastructure reshapes criminal liability—and how private-sector incentives accelerate the process. As enforcement capability grows, discretion shrinks, and “practical innocence” becomes harder to maintain.
This episode explores the quiet ratchet of technological power, the industrialization of suspicion, and the unsettling reality that the ability to enforce a rule is increasingly mistaken for a justification to create one.
