As security cameras become more widespread, privacy concerns are on the rise. Many argue that constant surveillance might infringe on personal freedoms.
While security cameras improve safety, it’s important to have clear policies to ensure footage is not misused. Many cities are adopting ethical guidelines to regulate how security footage is stored, accessed, and used.
Privacy Issues with Surveillance
• Facial recognition: AI-based recognition can track individuals across public and private spaces, raising concerns about personal privacy.
• Data security: Vulnerable data storage systems can expose sensitive footage to hackers.
• Surveillance without consent: People may not be aware they are being recorded, particularly in private spaces.

In 2019, San Francisco became one of the first major U.S. cities to ban the use of facial recognition by city agencies, citing concerns about privacy and civil liberties.
