Surveillance Technology-Nagisa Kanakubo

 I think surveillance technology is necessary for our safety. However, it can be dangerous thing.

 That technology is very useful to prevent crime and keep cities safe. In fact, there are so many CCTV cameras all over my country. And I have never been involved in crime. That tells us thanks to them, we can live more peacefully. However, some of them make me uncomfortable. For example, when I realize that someone is watching my movement, shopping habits and myself, I feel scared even if I don’t have nothing to hide. In other words, I worry that someone can identify me if my personal information is leaked.

 In short, surveillance technology is important, but I feel that our privacy may be invaded.

    You're absolutely right. CCTV always protects us from crimes, but it is also true that it could be became an invasion of privacy. I think that we have to use it more wisely.

    I agree with you. Surveillance technology makes our life and cities safer, but we sometimes feel uncomfortable because we are always watched by someone in anyplace. People can protect their privacy by not typing personal information on the Internet or something, but in case of being in the city, we cannot protect ourselves from any cameras or facial recognition system.

    Thank you for your great writing.
    When it comes to the balance between security and our privacy, there are a lot of things we should discuss more as you stated in your article.
    I also feel uncomfortable when I realized someone watching me though I'm innocent.

    There are many CCTV cameras in Japan especially in Tokyo! I think this is because there are many people there. Thanks to them, we can live safely and peacefully.

    I completely agree with your opinion. It is uncomfortable that you cannot hide though you understand 　someone watching you.

Fishing makes me happy -LEIL

To be honest, I have almost never fishing in China.  After coming to Dunedin, I started to like fishing. Dunedin is near the sea and there are many suitable fishing spots nearby. I like to go fishing in Port Chalmers on weekends with my friends. I think fishing helps me to release stress, exercise my willpower, and we will have fish to eat.

Market Day Debrief - Nagisa Kanakubo

   Today's market was fun because there were a lot of shops. I saw accessory shops and clothes shops and tried a game, too.  It was the most interesting that many of the accessories were made by people. Both of the students and the sellers seemed to enjoy the market.  I felt this market was one of the interesting cultures for the students and the local people in New Zealand.
