Provision of Repressive Technologies

March 20

The deployment of 250 high-tech CCTV cameras by Mysuru City Police under the oversight of Mysuru City Corporation enhances the city’s surveillance infrastructure. Despite being aimed at improving public safety and traffic management, such an expansion of monitoring technology can reinforce repressive state practices, creating potential tools for authoritarian control. This action is thus rated negatively from an anti-fascist perspective, as increased surveillance is often associated with invasive state power.

Provision of Repressive Technologies

The initiative directed by Mysuru City Corporation involves coordinating with local agencies and businesses to install and direct the use of surveillance cameras for tracking purposes.
