  • Essay / Being monitored by the government using contemporary technology

    Today's government uses several different methods to monitor and control our every move; spy drones are used, robots that imitate humans, and even your cell phone and televisions can see and record our every move. The government can also control people by using types of brainwashing, such as hypnosis and different types of music or sounds as well as drugs to affect your thought process. Although government surveillance can help reduce crime rates, the government should not use technological advancements to spy, because humans have a right to some freedom and need to enjoy privacy and security. The government has started using unmanned drones that can carry cameras and GPS receivers that are usually used. as a spying device. According to "Spy Drones Targeted in Louisiana Senator's Bill," a Louisiana state senator is trying to ban or limit the use of drones in his state to reduce wanton government snooping. In an effort to combat the case, Louisiana senators will ask lawmakers to consider criminalizing the use of drones to spy on people's private property without permission. There are some exceptions to this law, including for military purposes and in certain law enforcement activities. The Japanese government started inventing robots a few years ago. They make robots with synthetic skin and facial features to resemble real human beings; they work on computer systems. According to Chris Carroll, someone types a command into a computer and a robot raises its arms with a slight wheezing sound, compressed air under its silicone skin. She seems to pull herself together, smiling slightly and walking around the room, she blinks and turns to you and asks if you're surprised that she's a robot, she looks like a human. In Japan, they are... middle of paper... our lives. While these advances can help people, they end up causing more harm than good, which is why the government should stop spying without probable cause.
