If an individual has been grated either probation or patrol the system is allowing them a great deal or trust and freedom. Some individuals are deserving of this and will respect it. However some individuals are not deserving of this trust and freedom and will revert back to their old ways when they are given the chance. Modern technology is a good way to monitor probationers, and parolees. Many times probation officers have a high amount if cases and monitoring all individuals is near impossible. Modern technologies can ease the load on officers and keep a very close eye on them. Again I believe security outweighs privacy. Of course these situations need to be looked at on an individuals level, not grouped into a whole. For example, a sex offender is granted parole after serving a portion of their prison sentence. This individual is a repeat offender. Due to the fact this individual has previously committed a crime and are still carrying out a portion of their sentence their personal privacy should not be a concern. Especially since this individuals have proven before he will commit a crime again. This individual, and other like them have broken the law, and proven that they cannot abstain from criminal acts. Using modern technology, perhaps a electronic bracelet, device gives them a sense of securing, knowing they are being watched at all times. However there is another side to this coin. If these security methods were being implemented for offenders of a less serious crime for example, shopping lifting, or not paying a fine there may be a breach in personal privacy, civil liberties, and greater resilience from the public. Yes these individuals committing the less serious crime have still committed a crime, however they are not a serious threat to the general public, therefor should not be watched a monitored in the same way. I believe if an probationer, parole or even an inmate
