Equiveillance is a state of equilibrium, or a desire to attain a state of equilibrium, between surveillance and sousveillance.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] It is sometimes confused with transparency. The balance (equilibrium) provided by equiveillance allows individuals to construct their own cases from evidence they gather themselves,[8] rather than merely having access to surveillance data that could possibly incriminate them.
The Dutch perspective on equiveillance puts it in a sociopolitical context in regards to a balance between individuals and the state.[9][10]
Equiveillance uses sousveillance, in addition to transparency, to preserve the contextual integrity of surveillance data. For example, lifelong capture of personal experiences provides alternative viewpoints in addition to external surveillance data, to prevent the surveillance-only data from being taken out-of-context.
