"Deeply reported and incredibly entertaining, Benjamin Snyder's in-the-room account offers a touching portrait of Baltimore by way of an ensemble of quirky analysts, concerned community members, and desperate homicide detectives. His clear-eyed book reveals that behind surveillance-tech hype and promise are fallible, conflicted people and also gives nuance to conversations about surveillance and crime."--Brandon Soderberg, coauthor of I Got a Monster: The Rise and Fall of America's Most Corrupt Police Squad "Spy Plane provides a candid look at policing technology in action. Through his observations of Baltimore's use of an experimental surveillance plane, Snyder deftly shows how communities are excluded by the city agencies that, in theory, represent them. Going beyond AI boomer/doomer hype cycles, Snyder emphasizes that what matters is how people make decisions based on whatever powers they ascribe to a technology, whether or not it works as promised."--Tamara Kneese, author of Death Glitch: How Techno-Solutionism Fails Us in This Life and Beyond "An engaging behind-the-scenes account of a controversial police surveillance experiment. Snyder's unprecedented access and unique insight reveals the fraught ways surveillance tech shapes local policing."--Sarah Brayne, author of Predict and Surveil: Data, Discretion, and the Future of Policing
