Nevertheless, there is a national concern for security that seems to contradict the values of privacy, especially with the recent prevalence of cameras across the nation. Major cities all over the world place surveillance cameras as a security measure for crime prevention. Some of these cameras are owned by private businesses and others by the government itself. Today, the right to privacy extends to contraception, the marital relationship (sexual relations), abortion, and healthcare. However, the influx of cameras that constantly monitor American citizens’ lives poses a new threat to individual privacy. Americans ought to have an inherent right to privacy that extends beyond their home. The goal of this thesis is to provide a significant moral, ethical, and legal justification for the right to privacy against security cameras and determine whether the courts are expanding or limiting this right. 2020 English text Walsh University Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=walshhonors158807949418986 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=walshhonors158807949418986 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
