This is a new Popular Front original series called Big Terror. It's focused on detailing how governments all over the world are using the threat of terrorism to take away people's rights and destroy our freedoms in ways never seen before.

With investigative journalist Ali Winston—my partner on this project—we'll be looking into everything from militarised policing and government spying to mass-censorship and authoritarian protest laws. All of this is tied, in one way or another, to the threat of terrorism—both real and imagined. No state let's a good tragedy go to waste...
