Video surveillance (cctv) of public spaces makes our lives safer. Pro: research proves that there"s been a decrease in crime (korea) by placing cctvs around places, makes people feel more secure/save in their enviorment and when they go out, positive aspects in economy: No need for security guards saves money (there"s only someone who monitors) Only really helps after the incident has already happened: studies are influenced by production companies for cctv (manipulation) Invasion of privacy (cameras can read your messages over the shoulder) Cctv cameras can be easily hacked on the internet (abuse of power: see nsa) Embarrassing moments in public continue to stay forever.
