The law enforcement cameras are an invasion of privacy?

The government now has installed more and more cameras to monitor people's daily life in case of terrorist attack. Nevertheless that action, as an invasion of privacy, put the public in concerns about their personal security. In fact, more cameras do not bring more sense of security but the opposite.

First of all, people feel like there are always eyes watching me on the back, no matter when they are working, shopping or hanging out with friends! Can you imagine how would that your bedroom is the only place without cameras watching on you have felt like? People will freak out. Secondly there on way for the government to guarantee cyber information of the imagine would be stolen by criminal. If the criminal acquire our personal information like routine route back home or the most likely restaurant where to have a dinner by hacking the law enforcement system, we will be extremely dangerous. Anything that could be used by the police apartment could also be used by the bad guy including the terrorists as well. Furthermore the right of privacy is provided by the constitution for every legal citizen, which is no less important that any other rights the constitutions give us. The government has no right the take it at will. The taxpayers' money should be used to provide a another better way to deter the terrorism without undermining people's right of privacy and the sense of security.

As the reasons I mentioned above, government should stop invading people's privacy with the cameras. And it is my belief that we will and must find a way to overcome the threat of terrorism. God bless XX!!!!!~~
