Latin American cities are becoming increasingly monitored. The most evident example is the
increase in CCTV cameras, both public and private. With the spread of surveillance cameras
throughout the urban environment it is becoming nearly impossible for an individual to avoid
being digitally recorded while taking a walk along the streets. Surveillance, however, goes
far beyond that, as it includes a set of many different technologies and practices. In addition
to CCTV, we can cite the appearance of innumerous technologies like mobile and wearable
devices (smartphones, digital cameras, Google Glasses), drones, biometric tools,
identification cards, etc.
