Nowadays technology is increasingly being used to monitor what people are saying and doing (for example, through cell phone tracking and security cameras). In many cases, the people being monitored are unaware that this is happening. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

It is undeniable that, these days the usage of technology in the security field has increased dramatically over the past decade. So, some people feel that it is not appropriate to monitor someone’s personal life, whereas the others argue that
this
 necessary for public safety to stop crimes which are performed in crowds. I totally agree with the latter view. It has more pros outweigh cons.
First
 and foremost, innovation in technology brings more benefits for mankind. Nowadays, each and every shop and street have CCTV cameras to monitor crowd because of
this
 the rate of shoplifting and thefts reduce drastically.
This
Suggestion
These
 tracking systems do not only strengthen the security, but
also
 it
also
 helps in crime investigation. Due to
this
, the thief think twice before robbing.
For example
, after attack of 7/11 in the USA, the government track every movements of their citizens via cell phones and video cameras, owing to
this
 threat terror attack in USA never happens in
last
 two decades, because the government of USA keep monitoring their people activities, so it a small peep in personal lives of their laymen, but it is more worthy than the terror attacks.
On the other hand
, sometimes people feel unsecure to their lives because their every move is watching someone who doesn’t know about their nature.
Also
, some people keep asking questions related to their privacy and freedom.
Moreover
, we actually do not know what they will do with these recordings. Sometimes these recordings are used for personal vendetta to negotiate with another person. To conclude, the best way to reduce
this
 situation is to enact some stricter laws for monitoring peoples’ personal lives and everyone should abide these laws. So, citizens do not feel insecure.
