Introduction and First Paragraph

‘Increased use of science and technology to fight crime is an infringement on personal privacy.’ To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Nowadays, as science and technology significantly advance, there are a lot of new inventions which make our lives more comfortable and more harmless. The science and technology also become effective instruments to prevent crime and terrorism such as CCTV (Closed Circuit Television), the use of biometrics, DNA databases. However, some people consider that these technologies are transgressing to private right. They want to have freedom to do anything without surveillance. In the case of liberty, it may be true but if there are no methods to control human’s behaviors, our society will be savage and unsystematic. "A CCTV system will have the potential to reduce numerous city problems if the plan is integrated with other systems appropriately." (Chareonwongsak, 2008) This essay will argue that the extensive use of science and technology to defend crime is essential for us and it does not plentifully infringe on individual privacy. First of all, it will indicate science and technology have lots benefits more than disadvantages. Secondly, it will suggest government should adequately provide the new technologies in the country. Finally, it will persuade people who disagree with the use of science and technology to adjust their notion.

A common viewpoint is that the new technologies affect privacy and cause some people to feel nervous. Nevertheless, these are not crucial factors to damage the privacy because there is a protection act to restrict approaching the data. Definitely, science and technology are the best way to fight crime and they are reliable evidences in order to affirm criminals. They are also the powerful obstructions for criminals to realize that they will be arrested. Moreover, they support policemen to satisfactorily perform and strongly investigate. According to Malaysia Crime Watch (2007), "with the enhanced images of the closed circuit television (CCTV) system provided by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation, police are now able to make progress on the suspects responsible for the kidnap and murder of 8-year-old Nurin Jazlin Jazimin". They exactly reduce the damages which are the origin of crime as well.

Arming the police

It is often argued that a considerable police policy concerning the use of force, especially deadly force, is legal right. Some police officials believe that a police officer should use a firearm to defense of a life in immediate jeopardy and also to suddenly restrain the terrorists. However, the deadly force may have a high risk for killing the innocent people that they just only frighten the police and run away. This is exemplified by Jean-Charles De Menezes, the Brazillian, was mistakenly shot by anti-terrrorist police in a London underground station in 2005. So it is the crucial lessons that to prevent appearing this situation in the future.

Light Bulb invention

One of the most popular electrical appliances, which almost houses all over the world have, is light bulbs. Instead of using lamps, they effectively illuminate the night and they are more convenient. The first light bulb was invented in 1879 by Thomas Alva Edison. He was neither the first nor the only person trying to invent an incandescent light bulb. In 1809 Humphrey Davy, an English chemist, was the first scientist who started the journey to the invention of a practical incandescent light source. He used a high power battery to induce current between two charcoal strips. The current flowing through the two charcoal strips produced an intense incandescent light, creating the first arc lamp.
