#people #advances #technology #crime #circuit #television #systems #privacy
Undoubtedly, the closed
circuit
 television system is increasingly used by
people
 all over the world because it has many advantages
such
 as monitoring their home and they can check their accommodation when they are somewhere far away, while some
people
 believe that these
systems
 decrease personal privacy. In my opinion, I agree with the former view, and the reason to support my agreement will be discussed in detail.
To begin
 with, closed
circuit
 television
systems
, for some
people
 is vital because it makes
people
 feel uncomfortable like they have someone keep an eye on them all the time means decreasing their privacy
for example
 when you are doing your work but your family is checking the
camera
, you will feel uncomfortable to do your work.
However
, there are some advantages of closed
circuit
 television
systems
,
first
 of all, it helps
people
 to protect their accommodation because the
systems
 can record everything which is happening in the place if one day your things had stolen, you would be rewatched the situation in that day by
this
camera
 or when you have a car accident
this
camera
 will record the situation and it can be the best evidence to help you in court.
Moreover
, the
systems
 can help
people
 who live far away check their homes. To illustrate, they can see what is happening in their house "does anyone go into their house?" "Is everything all right?" In conclusion, even though closed
circuit
camera
systems
 have some disadvantages as I had given above but it still has some advantages which are great benefits for
people
's living nowadays.
