REVIEW
The evolution and introduction of surveillance was as a result of monitoring and tracking of various activities. Government utilizes surveillance in order to maintain balance ,gather intelligence which act as protective mechanism when needs arises such as crime prevention, investigation and general economic development.
IMPORTANCE
Government uses surveillance to establish and build database which act as information bank. These database provides and act as reference, intelligence,economic and business forecaster,future analysis and prediction along side new policy and actions to embark on. They also use surveillance in controlling political oppositions, void attacks which might be harmful to its citizen.
Overtime, different types and pattern of surveillance has emerged ranging from camera,audio surveillance equipment,signal tracking,computer surveillance. All these mechanism convert observation of people ,places or object into useful information used to investigate allegation.
COMPLAINS ON SURVEILLANCE
Nevertheless of surveillance importance, a lot of individuals, countries, and companies have laid complains and concerns about its negative effects. Government uses surveillance to breach privacy, database are often hacked and vital information are found in the wrong hands which has caused several attacks, promoted terrorism activities. These are worrisome and needs urgent attention.
CONCLUSIVELY
Stegos takes privacy extremely important because it is a global issue which needs attention of every individual on earth. My opinion on surveillance is that government should provide adequate and good measures in which datas and information gotten are stored in a safe place which can't be released to third parties that will neither use it wrongly nor be a source in which the dangerous personalities can obtain it.
