Camera surveillance and privacy
Cameras, both visible and hidden, have become an accepted part of our lives in recent years for a variety
of complex reasons. Widespread camera use has become part of our social lives, and CCTV surveillance
cameras are at least supposed to enhance our sense of security and help deter crime. But what about issues
of privacy? Is there enough transparency and enough regulations in our modern hi-tech world about who is
using cameras, where they are being used and for what purpose? And, most importantly, what impact do these
uses have on our human right to privacy and dignity?
There are many types of camera in use in society. Governments use a wide variety of cameras. The UK has one
of the highest numbers of CCTV cameras per head of population in the world. They film people on the street,
in government buildings and on public transport. They are supposed to offer the public protection but they are
also spying on people without their knowledge. Cameras also film car registration numbers, and drones can
film people in their own private spaces, such as gardens. Some human rights organisations believe that there is
too much spyware in society and that people are too complacent about being constantly watched.
But it isn’t only the government that films people. Employers and private organisations like shops and
businesses also film people, sometimes without their knowledge or permission. For instance, one famous US
hotel chain caused a scandal when it was discovered it was secretly filming employees in changing rooms.
The hotel company claimed it was to prevent crime but it was recording its workers without their knowledge.
There have also been instances when cameras have been hidden behind mirrors in changing rooms in clothing
stores too.
But not all hidden cameras are necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes they can help expose corruption
or wrongdoing. Investigative journalists have used them to expose corrupt government officials taking bribes
and to show the awful conditions on some farms, where animals have been kept in highly unpleasant
conditions that are extremely cruel. So there is a case for hidden cameras sometimes.
There can be no doubt that we cannot turn the clock back to how life was before technology became such
a huge part of our lives, and cameras are here to stay. However, there is a sound argument for there being
a greater public debate about how cameras are used in our societies, both by governments and private
organisations. There is also a case for more transparency and better regulation to ensure that people don’t
abuse their powers and that the public’s human rights are respected. Yes, we need to stop crime, but not at the
expense of human dignity.
