Question

Which type of technology in criminal intelligence do you think poses the highest risk of infringing our individual rights? Why?

Answer 1

I think intelligence is a high risk of civil rights infringement because it requires running informants, wiretapping, trying to keep tabs on everyone, and threatening to charge them with critical offenses if they never turn states evidence.

Answer 2

Answer:

Social network/ internet interaction monitoring systems are the ones that have the highest risks of infringing our rights because if they find something suspicious in a conversation they dig into the software and hardware involved in the conversation to verify if there is a security danger.

Explanation:

First of all, there is a huge debate on this topic. However, is best to prevent that to react. This can be told by anyone in the security business and is right. First of all the social network/internet interaction monitoring systems are able of breaking your firewall, review all you do and dig into your data to understand what is going on and to see if there is a previous behavior related to the action. Also, it understands if it is a misunderstanding, a joke or a real situation. Also, social networks work with the government to guarantee national security so there is no way to avoid this except by not using any type of hardware or to crack them to stop communicating the information to the authorities, however that is a crime. And they are the worst because they can know everything about you and even watch you while you are playing a videogame on your cellphone and you can't know you are being watched.
