On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to UN Sanctions Rapporteur Idriss Jazairy about the escalating crisis between the US and Iran, why sanctions never achieve their goals of regime change, how endless sanctions without room for negotiation could mean war, US sanctions killing 40,000+ in Venezuela, and more! Next, we speak to Lizzie O’Shea, author of ‘Future Histories,’ on the history of mass surveillance and policing, how police and mass surveillance have been used throughout history and today to protect class interests and maintain the status quo, how big tech companies are inhibiting freedom, and why the technological revolution has disappointed!
