Minority Report Surveillance

Minority Report Surveillance
In Minority Report by Steven Spielberg, which is a utopia where there is a thing called pre-crime. Pre-crime are three gifted humans that can tell the future, John Anderton a very high in power cop starts to notice flaws in the system. Afterwards the pre-crimes see him, killing someone in the future. Throughout the story we see a lot of surveillance such as spiders,and scanner everywhere that will read your eyes. They Identify who you are, there is a complication with this because it does invade your privacy. Another situation is that someone could easily take your identity, by replacing your eyes for theirs. The US is already on its path to this, They are always spying on us. This is similar to the spiders,and scanners. An example would be Edward Snowman, a really famous whistle blower showed us that the CIA was always keeping an eye on everyone. In addition they could look at you, at anytime they wanted. This incident has also been seen around the world, for instance North Korea, East Germany, Syria have all invaded their populations privacy. In Minority Report the Surveillance Technology invaded the individual's privacy, furthermore in 50 years the US might be leading to this.

In Minority Report
by Steven Spielberg the privacy of people gets invaded by technology like scanners along with spiders. There are cons and pros about this technology such as no privacy, also identity theft. Some of the pros are that if a real criminal was trying to run away, this scanners combined with spiders would find them. But there is a problem, because if a person has a transplant of eyes they will be identified as another human. What makes the spiders scanners such a bad thing is that, in the movie there is a scene where they are looking for John Anderton. They deploy this spiders all over a building, the spiders are to be able to see if John is there, they scan everyone's eyes even if they aren't John Anderton. The spiders go until they find John, and once they do he has different eyes to which they don't detect him as john. All of the people in the building are doing their normal activities afterward the spiders scan everyone disturbing their own privacy. Spielberg's vision of surveillance technology, is likely to come true in the US as technology develops throughout the years.

The US does not have this type of technology, but in the near future they could advance them.
Privacy is a big thing in the United States, most people want to keep it. Some of the pros of having privacy is the ability to ensure that government can not abuse their powers, furthermore take advantage of anyone without facing the consequences. All of this new technology would affect the way we act in our society. Technology is continuously changing and improving. Technology can include so many different devices, not just the use of computers. The more that technology improves the less assurance of privacy, also becoming threatened by wrongdoers. If the US developed spiders people would try get away to avoid this types of privacy
problems.
