Mass Surveillance and Crime

Government's propaganda states that mass surveillance can help decrease crime rates.

On the contrary, many "soldiers of privacy" all over the world argue that mass surveillance not only acts as a serious threat to human freedom, but it's also quite ineffective about preventing and fighting criminality.

Are there actual data that support the latter or the former opinion? Otherwise, without proper data, they are just opinions and ideology.

mass surveilence are not a defence against suicidal invaders, they are a observation system on citizens behavior.

stop confusing both.

to defend against suicidal invaders you don't have police and cameras you have automatic sentry towers with lethal force.

Observation is not necessarily bad.
There are many cases that are solved due to the surveillance systems on the roads.
Criminals are found due to them.
