Connected to technology and/or are under surveillance

 I believe I am under watch 24 hours a day because I use a smartphone, and it seems it is listening and watching me all the time. When I talk about something or even watch anything, it comes to my search engine or ad. They know what I am looking for, even though I didn’t use the term on the phone for search or anything else.

We have street cameras on the roads, so my movement is recorded.

I use a Presto Card on the bus, streetcar, and subway. If I check my Presto card status on the website, I can see that it records where I have punched, at what time, how much money I have expended, and how much money is left on my card. So, Presto can also detect my location and time.

They have CCTV cameras inside the bus/streetcar/subway, so my movement is always recorded.

At home, I have a smart TV. I noticed that sometimes, my TV sends info to my cell phone, and then the phone automatically starts showing the AD that was just shown on the TV. And I was holding my phone.

I didn’t like the way two machines were talking behind me and working on me without my consent. To stop this, I turned off one program on my phone, which generally keeps turning on when someone buys a phone or upgrades the system.

The smart TV has a computer with a camera inside it. It may be watching me and sending signals even when the TV is turned off.

Information about movement or activities in public places can be used for security reasons. But I believe all information, even personal information, is being taken and used for commercial purposes. They do not have any consent, and even if they have (sometimes people say I agree to the terms and conditions), they are not sharing their profit with us. This information is used to make money by using the general public without payment. Moreover, in some places, it may be used by the government to demolish someone illegally (against the opposite party, racism, etc.). All of this should be stopped.
