Robert Clayon Dean... (Will Smith) Country/Date: USA/1998 How would you feel if your privacy chad been invaded? If you watch the movie "Enemy of the State", starring Will Smith, you will have a good idea of what I am talking about. It is a thrilling movie that shows that nowadays technology allows anyone and everyone, anywhere to be under surveillance 24 hours a day. That's what happens to Will Smith in this movie. He is put under extreme surveillance after an eformer college classmate slips some crime evidence in his shopping packages. Even his clothes are wired to show exactly where he is and what he is doing. I
believe that this movie is still far from reality,
but it is not impossible. Surveillance exists where
we least expect it--in the work place, in stores,
in restaurants, everywhere. All in order to
maintain the rules of society, but where to draw
the line between acceptable surveillance and
exaggerated surveillance; that is, invasion of
privacy? Everyone has the right to come and go, the
right to speak freely and to express his thoughts.
Aren't you ever suspicious? Remember, you never
know who might be watching you! |
