The Privacy Paradox

A new city-wide surveillance system promises to drastically reduce crime, locate missing persons instantly, and prevent terrorist attacks. The system uses AI-powered facial recognition and behavioral analysis to monitor all public spaces. However, this effectively ends public anonymity. Every citizen's movements and associations would be tracked and stored indefinitely. The choice is to implement this system for maximum security or to reject it to protect privacy as a fundamental right.
