Abstract

This chapter considers how surveillance modalities affect privacy. The modalities include government sanctioned CCTV or social networks, each of which create tensions and concerns between the data subject-citizen and the data processor.
The chapter focuses on the wide uses of surveillance and considers the sociological and philosophical responses to the burgeoning levels of surveillance and its effect on personal liberty, especially, when the prevailing political view that increased surveillance and subsequent incursions of personal liberty is a societal good. The chapter also concentrates on autonomy and related privacy issues that are associated with the acquisition of images or audio recordings by selected agencies and how those images or recordings are used or disseminated.

However, more precisely, public CCTV for surveillance purposes is regulated by the Surveillance Camera Commissioner, who encourages compliance to the surveillance camera code of practice; but does not have any powers of enforcement, and any breaches of the code would likely breach human rights law and not data protection law. Moreover, CCTV in shops and company premises needs to comply with data protection law. Whether public CCTV is affected by the Human Rights Act 1998 is another matter that need not be of concern here. Ideally, the Canadian approach would address any contentious use of CCTV in public.

Similarly, Solove (2011), pp. 24–25 op cit [succinctly notes that] “privacy can be invaded by the disclosure of your deepest secrets. It might also be invaded if you’re watched by a Peeping Tom, even if no secrets are ever revealed to anyone”.

The ‘politicisation of bodily integrity’ is usually gender specific and relates to the women’s rights discourse. I have used the term to broaden its scope and apply it to the biometric discourse in terms of consent and self-determination, which resonates within the women’s rights discourse.
