In the past, Germany had a secret police organization called the Stasi, which collected information on many people.
suī rán虽然xiàn zài现在dé guó德国yǐ jīng已经zhòng shì重视bǎo hù保护yǐn sī隐私 ，dàn但hěn很duō多dì fāng地方hái shì还是zài在yòng用xīn jì shù新技术jiān kòng监控rén men人们 ，bǐ rú比如yòng用diàn nǎo ruǎn jiàn电脑软件bāng zhù帮助jǐng chá警察gōng zuò工作 。
Although Germany now values privacy protection, many places still use new technologies to monitor people, such as computer software that helps the police work.
xiàn zài现在 ，hěn很duō多gōng sī公司hé和xué xiào学校yě也huì会yòng用shè xiàng tóu摄像头 、zhǐ wén指纹 、yǎn dòng眼动zhuī zōng追踪děng等fāng fǎ方法lái来guān chá观察yuán gōng员工hé和xué shēng学生 。
Nowadays, many companies and schools also use cameras, fingerprints, eye-tracking, and other methods to observe employees and students.

Some schools even use computers to record students' class attendance and analyze their movements and expressions.
hěn很duō多xué shēng学生hé和jiā zhǎng家长jué de觉得zhè yàng这样bù tài hǎo不太好 ，yǒu有de的rén人fǎn duì反对zhè xiē这些zuò fǎ做法 。
Many students and parents feel this is not very good, and some people oppose these practices.
chú le除了xué xiào学校hé和gōng sī公司 ，qì chē汽车yě也kě néng可能shōu jí收集wǒ men我们de的xìn xī信息 。
Besides schools and companies, cars may also collect our information.
yǒu xiē有些qì chē汽车gōng sī公司huì会bǎ把chē zhǔ车主de的shù jù数据mài卖gěi给qí tā其他gōng sī公司 。
Some car companies sell the data of car owners to other companies.
wǒ men我们zài在kāi chē开车 、shàng bān上班 、shàng xué上学de的shí hòu时候 ，dōu都kě néng可能bèi被jiān kòng监控 。
When we drive, go to work, or attend school, we may be monitored.

Although some people feel this makes things safer, others worry about their privacy being violated.

We need to think about how to find a balance between protecting safety and protecting privacy.
