“…Moreover, with the pervasive use of sensors (e.g. facial recognition) and AI in smart cities, policing may become an embedded feature of the infrastructure with automated penalties being imposed upon violators or perhaps worse for dissenters thus quelling freedom of speech ( Joh, 2019 ). Most recently, this has been brought to the fore in the surveilling of protesting crowds, from Black Lives Matter to George Floyd, and also determining whether people are observing appropriate social distancing.…”

Highlights Forecasting the long-term development of technology is challenging. The six Genres offers a parsimonious framework to examine future developments. This examines various configurations of human – artefact relationships. It identifies autonomy, intelligence, language, and autopoiesis as key features. The sixth genre is established as Interconnected, autopoietic, technological beings.

“…However, privatisation of law enforcement is not free from its problems. Research on the privatisation of policing of traditional crimes suggests the presence of the concerns around fair investigations, authority abuses and protecting companies' interests rather than public interest (Ruddell, Thomas, and Patten, 2011;Joh, 2019;Lam, 2019). Whether the same concerns are valid for the privatisation of policing cybercrime is vague.…”

Cybercrime has received the 'Tier One' national security risk status in many countries due to the increased cyber threats. In response to this severe threat, governments have announced a substantial amount of investment in cybercrime prevention programmes. It is evident that tackling cybercrime requires expertise and cybersecurity skills as the networked global nature of the Internet pose significant challenges to policing cybercrime. Previous policing cybercrime studies illustrated that local police officers lack the technical skills, which obviously hampered the fight against cybercrime. Police forces continue enhancing their ability to tackle cybercrime through specialised cybercrime units. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of empirical research examining policing problems of economic cybercrime through the lenses of expert police officers working in cybercrime departments. This empirical research addresses this knowledge gap in the literature. A thematic analysis method was employed to analyse semi-structured interviews conducted with expert police officers working at cybercrime departments in the United Kingdom.Lack of international cooperation, underreporting of economic cybercrime incidents and lack of victim awareness emerged as key challenges. Police officers' views regarding private sector involvement in policing economic cybercrime appear to be tentative due to ethical concerns. Publicprivate partnership in combatting cybercrime appears to be an effective solution to enhance the effectiveness of combatting cybercrime. European Union (EU)'s new Cybersecurity Act (Regulation 2019/881), which restructures the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA) is the latest example of public-private partnership in combatting cybercrime. However, the results of this study suggest that the scope of this initiative should be extended to non-EU countries to maintain global cybersecurity.

In a modern and big city, the security system is not a single layered single module system. Instead, it consists of many layers with autonomous subsystems which are capable of interfacing reciprocally in an efficient and coordinated way horizontally and vertically. The design of such indigenous subsystems and ensuring tight interaction between them taking into account high usability and resource utilization is not a simple task. In this regard, this article provides a comprehensive overview of the security systems in smart cities. We begin by introducing trends and key stakeholders in smart cities. Next, we provide examples of mass surveillance systems in developed countries like USA, UK, and China. Finally, we highlight some of the major challenges in complete realization of smart cities. The security aspects discussed in this study can be beneficial in designing future smart cities.
