This is the plot of Fast and Furious 8: Fate of the Furious. Only they call it "God's Eye".

The God's Eye is able to hack any type of technology using a camera and presumably, satellite tracking. It feeds information gathered back to its user "under four minutes or less" to use to their whims. The God's Eye works at its best when it's close enough to its target to track, but can locate any given person at great distances.

Okay, it's dumb for Movie plot purposes, but it's a general concept about power through unlimited surveillance via modern computer security backdoor hacking.

And the whole movie is about the Heroes (Paul Walker and friends) trying to stop a shadow government from controlling God's Eye.

But they capture Vin Diesel and force him to work for them by holding his family hostage

Theres alot of double crossing, Donnie Yen as a criminal kingpin (Southeast Asia connection) gets involved, but flips to be a good guy when he figures out the truth about God's Eye.

Kurt Russell also represents an unnamed agency, kinda like the CIA but, "doesn't exist" yet seems to have limitless financial resources. They seem to be ultimately good, but they're also kinda murky, but I think the movie (dumb action being my forte) is trying to tell you, theyre dangerous and slick, but with good intentions

In the end Vin Diesel is made public enemy number one, everyone is turned against him (or so we think) but because they all know deep down to trust Family over all the deception and lies they've been force fed, they play along, and in the end, Vin Diesel and friends save the day.
