His author page and articles

Mike Tarantino started AI Spy Tech in July 2024 and still runs it. He decides what the site covers and how its articles are written.

Articles on the site carry his name. His author page explains why he started the site and lists every article.

What the site covers

Articles look at AI in CCTV monitoring, facial recognition, threat detection, drone surveillance and security cameras, and at the privacy questions these tools raise. Detection software also appears in school security and wildlife research.

Start with a section: AI Surveillance, AI Privacy, AI Detection or AI Security.

Who it is for

It is for people with no security background who want to know what these systems do. Homeowners choosing a camera and parents reading about school detection software are typical readers.

How articles are written

Articles published or updated under our editorial standards answer two questions, in this order.

  1. What is it? What the tool does, who uses it, what it collects and what the law says.
  2. How do you protect yourself? Free options such as settings and opt-outs come first. A product follows only where it saves real time or does something free options cannot.

Each statistic and news claim links to its source, and a disputed point is labeled as disputed. Protection advice stays legal. Older articles keep their original date and are brought up to these standards when they are updated.

The rules behind the articles

The full rules are on the editorial standards page. How the site earns money is on the disclosures page.
