The use of security cameras have been used for years, they surround our malls, air ports, local businesses and even our homes. With satellites and 99% of our cellular devices containing a GPS tracker in the phone, what is privacy?  Many people don’t know that Apple has multiple law suites against them concerning their “location” tracker on all of their devices; which allows Apple to know where you are at all times.  FaceBook is known to track your previous searches from your internet cookies and requests you new “likes”.   It is clear that researcher use this to create social benefits and break down specific target groups, The fact that my history can be checked along with my picture when my name typed into google, there should be a level of social privacy.  The society we live in seems to embrace it, with Twitter and Facebook people know where you are and what your doing at all times, so who even needs optical surveillance.  Privacy doesn’t really exist anymore, and the scary part is it is only getting worse.  In the “somebody is watching you” section of the article Benabbas stated the power of these new computer aided systems, and in the near future believes they will be able to track “single persons and [detect] abnormal behaviors” (Benabbas et al, 2011: 14)  so if were being visually watched and watched through the internet and use of social media, private living does not exist.  Another very interesting part of the reading is the use of Data Mining.  Data Mining,  for example, will use Twitter to determine, ones sex, age, religion, race, political affiliation, and sexual orientation but not by what individuals write or post, but through an individuals previous network connections.
