Information about a person is collected daily. People transmit some data on their own, some find themselves in the wrong hands without the consent of a person. Total control everywhere in society is video cameras, sensors, GPS navigators and identifiers.
Human control
The Constitution of the Russian Federation states that everyone has the right to privacy. The advent of electronic passports and cards allows you to read information about the subject with one touch. Total control is a way to track information about a person based on previously collected data.
When processing documents in state institutions, a consent to the processing of personal data is necessarily signed. The control system allows you to find out not only the date of birth and passport data, but also career growth, hobbies, marital status.
The risks
The total control system stores information in electronic form, which creates risks:
- data can be stolen by hackers for personal use;
- human health information may be used by scammers.
Subscriber tracking by mobile operator
Cellular operators collect information about the movement of people for the correct redistribution of traffic between towers. The company needs this for the smooth operation of cellular communications. Operators know the amount of traffic spent and topics of interest. Information is used in conjunction with the government of major cities to analyze and improve the infrastructure of the city. An honest man has nothing to hide, but there is no guarantee that in the near future this information will not turn against him.
Total control over people is safe until the information has fallen into unnecessary hands or repression has begun for political reasons. Information technology is developing faster than the law. The greater the difference between these points, the more dangerous the total control.
Society control
Video cameras on the streets of the city are found in large and small cities of Russia. They help to solve crimes, find the culprits of the accident or help in finding people.
The Safe City program has been developed which allows not only to track a person’s movement, but also to predict his behavior. Digital cameras with the function of tracking the state of a person by gait and gestures are installed at Moscow metro stations and railway stations.
The technique identifies each person who has passed, and compares it with the database, with a coincidence, the information is transmitted to the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Emergencies.
Total control over society is interesting to the state, because it allows you to monitor the situation and make decisions. Any person who gets into the lens is tested and, if necessary, the camera will give a signal to the appropriate services. The reason may be a physical resemblance to a criminal.
Legal framework for total control
Total control is the ability to track a person’s private life without additional permission. In the Russian Federation, the issue of wiretapping and Internet correspondence has been settled. To do this, you must obtain a court permit for a certain period.
Video recording allows you to take pictures of society and store data about each person, while the actions of law enforcement agencies are not fixed by law. Spying on a person is possible only with a warrant, and permission is not required for the camera.
People blithely leave personal data on various sites, this is used by the state. Keeping track of who visited banned online resources is easy. Data can be used to protect society or to search for criminals.
Total control of a person speaks of a society with clear signs of a repressive regime.
Social networks
Total control is the ability to maintain national security, but sometimes a person himself puts information on the Internet that allows him to see his whole life.
Social networks track our preferences, posts that evoke positive emotions and offer interesting material for viewing. But the Facebook network went further and patented a system that allows the bank to transfer information about the financial condition of the user's friends. Such data help the bank to decide on a loan.
Not only the status of friends is assessed, but also the degree of relationship with them. If the rating of friends is higher than the rating necessary to obtain the loan amount, the bank continues the process of collecting information about the client.
Information is collected based on the data that the user posted on the network. Social networks are a great do-it-yourself dossier. In this case, the main condition when uploading photos to the network is the person’s face, which should be well visible. At the same time, you must confirm that it is you in the photo.
You can not upload photos of other people, children and animals. Unauthorized persons cannot be uploaded to the network without their consent. But social networks prohibit the laying out of animals. This is done in order to have a comparative base for video cameras. By linking photos and videos, you can make a full-fledged picture of a person’s life and movements.
Quality control
Total verification can be beneficial. Japan is the first country to prove this. Total quality control was introduced here. In the absence of such control, up to 60% of the time may be spent on correcting errors and marriage. Market leaders are always responsible for product quality.
In Japan, it is checked not only at the enterprise. After the sale of products, longevity and serviceability, maintenance are monitored.
Quality management moves to a new level and strengthens consumer control over it. The latter is interested in buying reliable quality for long-term use.
Japanese developers are confident that an analysis of the work is required. It allows you to discover the relationship between the flaws and the opinion of the end user. Control takes place at every stage from development to the user.
Training on monitoring product quality applies not only to enterprise workers, but also to managers. The company's management puts it in the first place. The personnel certification system allows you to cover all employees and conduct an analysis of their training.
The Japanese adhere to the following rules:
- saw a marriage - stop the conveyor;
- do not accept low-quality products;
- do not repeat mistakes.
The future of control
Periodically, there are proposals to introduce total monitoring not only in the sphere of personal data of the country's residents, but also for their income. Shops equipped with online cash desks will allow controlling expenses of citizens not only by credit cards, but also when paying in cash. In the second case, the binding will be by phone number.
Thus, the state wants to identify those who have a salary in an envelope or who work informally. The store must not only issue a check to the buyer, but also send information to the tax authorities.
It will be possible for the consumer to always restore the check in electronic form, even if it is lost on paper.
Such a system may appear in the future, but so far there is no way to solve technical issues. Total control is the ability to restore information of any age and any level. On the other hand, data about a person is a lever of pressure that the state can use to make it controlled by the system.
