Surveillance isn’t going anywhere - nearly every country is utilizing it (be it widely known or unknown) and that trend is only increasing.
The hope of democratic nations is to use it well, with ample checks, balances, and protections. It is arguably a necessity for national and international security. Proper checks should keep it confined to this space.
Surveillance has been in use for decades by most countries, somewhere along the line we forgot though that the enemy isn’t surveillance itself, it is abuse.
- paulpauper 6y agoAgree. Covid has only given the surveillance state the justification it needs to grab more power.
- gentleman11 6y agoYou have to trust that an unbroken line of honest surveillance users will exist at all points in government and business, decade after decade, across all political parties and industries. How exactly is that going to happen when even convenience store chains are recklessly using ai driven mass surveillance now?
