People in this contemporary world, are addicted to their mobile phones and to their social media. In recent years, few believe that authorities should have access to their citizens mobile phone call records and messages for safety. Others argue that this data are private and no one should have access without their concern. This essay will discuss both the perspective before presenting my own view.
On the one hand, it helps the government enhance the nations security. This is due to the fact that humanity have conversation with their mobile phones.Furthermore,there will be a rapid decrease in crime rate.It can be attributed by the higher officials can get to know prior the crime.For example,the government of America was spying the few suspects phone calls and messages in 2022.As a result they prvented a huge devastating attack by terorist in New York city central.
On the other hand,privacy matters a lot for everyone. Higher officials peeping into general public phones lead to human right violation.This is because that particular person did not provide his permission.Moreover, people freedom of doing things are denied. This is due to the reason that people have are always monitored by someone regularly.To illustrate, a survey was conducted by group of researchers at York University,Toronto regarding passing a law in legistlative that provide the right to policymakers to access the individual phones.The survey result showed that 4 out of 5 people are against implementing the law.
To conclue,although few people trust that government can access their citizen personal information. In my opinion, I stand with the people who says the information should not be reviewed by anyone without their approval due to people privacy and freedom.
