recognition well dell babus former chief superintendent in london's metropolitan police force he says there's a need for checks and balances for this technology to be fully embrace. all of us need to understand is that people will have surveillance going on all the time you know whether your going to the supermarket supermarket can track your purchases and and determine what is the best things to sell to you so i think what this is doing is tracking people who are potentially going to do is arm and then looking at how they can try and mitigate the harm. i think it's right that we have proper checks and balances because the concerns that people are now voice in are the very very same concerns that people have always seen when d.n.a. was introduced all when tracking of individuals was 1st introduced in. the number plate readers of cars and i don't necessarily have as much faith with the private sector not abusing the data that we have we've seen that with facebook we've seen
