  • And, going back to work might require getting used to surveillance and data collection in the workplace.

Guests: Axios' Bryan Walsh, Ben Geman, and Erica Pandey

Security has been stepped up in Washington, D.C., and state capitols across the U.S. as authorities brace for potential violence this weekend.

Driving the news: Following the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by some supporters of President Trump, the FBI has said there could be armed protests in D.C. and in all 50 state capitols in the run-up to President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration Wednesday.
