# Schneier on Security

**[Schneier on Security](https://daily.dev/sources/schneier)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Bruce Schneier highlights the underexplored privacy risks professional athletes face from wearable technology. Coaches and teams can access biometric data — sleep patterns, heart rate — raising concerns about workplace surveillance. Additional risks include sports leagues commercializing this data for gambling markets, and teams using biometric insights against players in contract negotiations. Aging and injured athletes are identified as most vulnerable. Schneier notes this is an unusual surveillance case because the subjects are wealthy, powerful, and often unionized.
