Exploring Privacy, Artificial Intelligence, and Surveillance in Politics
Surveillance Technology’s Political Implications
Artificial intelligence-driven surveillance is transforming how political expressions are recorded. License-plate readers originally designed for traffic enforcement are now collecting data on political signs and sentiments across neighborhoods. This development raises critical privacy concerns.
Data Collection and Its Consequences
- Billions of Photos: The systems have amassed over 15 billion vehicle sightings, turning personal expressions into searchable data.
- Potential for Misuse: Civil liberties groups warn about the use of such data against individuals based on their political beliefs.
- Public Safety vs. Privacy: Advocates tout the benefits for public safety but highlight the potential for abuse of the data collected.
As technology advances, the lack of regulations regarding the collection and use of this data needs urgent attention.
