Surveillance Technology-Satomi Moriguchi

 　I think CCTV cameras are very useful in our lives, because if your wallet, cell phone or other valuables are stolen, a CCTV camera can be very helpful to find the culprit.This would reduce crimes such as theft and robbery. On the other hand, CCTV cameras are always watching us. This also raises the issue of invasion of our privacy. However, if we take measures to prevent the information from CCTV cameras from being abused, our privacy will not be violated.Then our lives will be much safer.

I think microchips in products which feed information back to producers is a technology that makes it easier to find what you want. Producers can also use this technology to improve sales of their products. Therefore, I think this technology is a win-win situation for both producers and customers.

I also thought about number plate recognition. This could be useful not only in speeding enforcement, but also in identifying car thieves. Therefore, I think number plate recognition should be installed on public roads.

All of this shows that there are many advantages to surveillance technology. Of course, there are dangers, but when used correctly, surveillance technology can make our lives safer.

    I think the microchips in the product is useful not only for us but also for companies. I don't mind that tell the company what I bought and I'm happy to tell me the products which are recommended.

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.

  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.
