surveillance الدولة (intelligence in Arabic)

Surveillance الدولة (intelligence) refers to the systematic collection, analysis, and monitoring of information about individuals, groups, or activities, often by government agencies. Its purpose is typically to ensure national security, prevent crimes, or gather strategic insights. This can involve various methods such as monitoring communication systems, surveillance cameras, and data analysis. While it helps protect public safety, it also raises concerns about privacy and civil liberties. Effective intelligence balances security needs with respect for individual rights, employing legal frameworks and oversight to avoid misuse or abuse of power.
