Privacy and Security are both essential factors in an individual’s life to make themselves feel safe
The question that arises is how agencies can ensure security without violating an individual’s right to privacy
At what point does maintaining national security become more important than respecting privacy?
In the golden era of digital development legislators, law enforcement and policymakers are facing a new challenge: respecting privacy while ensuring security. They now juggle with a need for privacy of data and their responsibility as state protectors, attempting to arrive at a method that ensures both.
With the rising number of posts and personal messages spreading fake news, hate speech, terrorist agendas and much more on various platforms, law enforcement agencies are left with no option but to follow digital trails that lead them to perpetrators. In this day and age, any sort of legal investigation makes identifying this digital trail essential and unavoidable.
