Watching them watching you (Big Brother is watching you!)

[Aerdt]

Searching about this topic, first of all I look in wikipedia the definition of surveillance and I read that is the monitoring of behaviour. In other words is like the big brother wrotten in ‘1984’ by George Orwell. There are many different systems to monitoring or spying people, things or whatever: eavesdropping (clandestinely listening a private conversation), telephone tipping, micro cameras, infrared cameras (for night vision), GPS trackings, CCTV systems, radars or reconnaissance satellites, among others. But there’s a new technology that’s very useful and used all around the world for every of us that has a controversy. I’m referring to Google Earth that shows our beautiful earth with details as never have seen before. And it’s new ‘street view’ show the world in 3D from a ground view, catching images of the people without their permission. I have visited this other web site too: www. surveillance-and-society.org
