More and more cameras are being set up on streets, in malls, in shops. Soon enough, there will be no place for true privacy. In some countries such as the USA, telephone lines and email's are also checked for any threats from terrorists etc.
Should security over take privacy or should there be a limit to how far goverments can go?
Happy debating!

Well, I guess they want to keep places safe and sercure, but there has to be a limit to how much you can do, especially with cameras, as then you'd have no privacy to do whatever you wanted to do, without others knowing, obviously that wouldn't be a breach of the law or whatever.
They should have something else other then cameras, so they have sercurity, and people still have their privacy. Like sercurity guards instead of cameras.

They are keeping us safe, but they shouldn't be put in toilet's, from where the can see things we may not want them to.

Yes. There arent people sitting there watching the cameras for anything interesting happeneing, and the tapes are only used if they need to be. I dont see what you'd do in the streets that you dont mind people seeing but dont want cameras to see.

Personally I think security should take over privacy. If a suspect terrorist is talking on the phone to someone else - the police should have the right to listen to what he is saying. If they were not allowed then the terrorist could be organising another attack which could result in the death of hundreds.

Hmm, yeah I guess it should, i'd rather be safe then sorry.
-
Another reason they should film all the streets etc. is that muggers will be easily caught and off the streets.. I would feel safer
