Some people believe that technological tools such body scanners and CCTV have significantly enhanced our safety and security, while others feel they have resulted in a loss of privacy. Do the benefits of these items outweigh their disadvantages?

There is a belief that body scanners and

CCTVs

can increase the safety of public spaces,

while

others believe that these technological devices can bring a negative impact on their privacy. In my opinion,

this

phenomenon has more benefits than drawbacks. On the one hand, using CCTV may lead to losing the inhabitant's privacy.

CCTVs

are usually placed in public

areas

, and they record the data, which are images and videos of the community.

This

personal information would be under the control of the authority.

Therefore

, it is possible that the authority misuses these datasets, leading to the leak of personal information.

For example

, if

this

data is leaked, some people can use

this

information to know about others' daily routines,

such

as working time and use it to get into their houses illegally.

On the other hand

, applying these technological applications have several advantages. Chief among these is that it can increase the satisfaction of the inhabitant because they feel safe and trust the authority.

CCTVs

help the police to easily check the public area because they can quickly detect or monitor people who have wrong behaviour on the screen. Another advantage is that the number of crimes in CCTV

areas

decreases significantly. When installing

CCTVs

or body scanners in public places, everyone will know these

areas

have

CCTVs

, and everything they do will be recorded.

Therefore

, crimes will avoid in these places, which makes people in these

areas

will be safe. In conclusion, there is a disadvantage in terms of leaking personal data when applying technological devices

such

as CCTV and body scanners,

while

this

application can offer many advantages.
