Surveillance technology － Riri Matsushima

 


   Surveillance technology has benefits for society and individuals lives. For example, CCTV can solve or reduce crime. Another example is tracking cookie, which allows companies to advertise effectively. However, personal information collected by surveillance technology is often used for crime. In one case, there were an incident that an officer was using number plate recognition to monitor the movement of an individual. There is also no end to incident that personal information collected by companies is traded by insiders or third-party. In addition, beliefs and medical history may be used to disadvantage individuals based on discrimination or prejudice. And those problems are not adequately addressed now. As mentioned at the beginning, surveillance technology has many benefits. Legislation is needed to ensure that they are used correctly.

    I agree with your idea and think We have to establish a safe system for use.　I also learned for the first time that there have actually been instances of information being bought and sold. So I thought we need to be knowledgeable about information because it is important and valuable.

    I have never thought about tracking cookies.
    However, after I read your post, I could understand how dangerous this system is.
    I strongly agree with you.

    I agree with you. I have heard that there were some abuse of personal information by using surveillance technology. It is horrible, and we must think about how to use these technology again.

    Your idea that beliefs and medical history may be used to disadvantage individuals based on discrimination or prejudice inspire me a lot.When the majority of people become vested in these surveillance technologies, they have no right to speak for the minority which remain. This is a humanitarian thinking.

    The idea of relief and medical history is one of the problems of surveillance technology. I understood that it could cause moral problems, too.

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.

Surveillance Technology- Hiromi Yoshioka

   I think the surveillance technology will help keep us safe, because if we use surveillance technology, we can notice crimes easily. The surveillance technology will help us to prevent or solve crime. Also, the picture quality of security cameras is really good these days, so the police can identify criminals more easily and it will help move investigation forward smoothly. Also, not only for prevention or investigation of crime, but for children's safety, the surveillance technology is useful. It means that if a child gets lost, parents or other adults can search for him or her by using the surveillance technology. That technology must help improve safety for children.   However, the surveillance technology can sometimes invade our privacy if it is used wrongly. The abuse of the surveillance technology is dangerous for us, because the abuse of that technology measns that someone can know what we do or recognize our personal information without noticing us. So, we must understand
