So is the NSA security leaker a hero, villian or both?

Cellphones are almost required in the workplace, so much so that a lot of companies give you one that they expect you to use "strictly" for company purposes.

and by "company" you mean your mom

Holio is completely right about what corporations have done, are doing and will do in the future as it pertains to our privacy. What they do is almost worse except they don't, at least we thought, share that data with the govt who can put us in the land of pillow biters. What corporations have planned for the future is mind numbing and completely unsustainable. Siri is just the fucking beginning. Go watch the TED talks and see for yourself. They want this all encompassing internet which is a hair's breadth away from being sentient, they will require everyone to upload into this near sentient being everything about their lives so it knows you and can track you through the world. And what is the window into this all encompassing interconnected net? Your smartphones...what they have planned for those things is ludicrous. And who's going to watch over that system? You will not be able to fart in a closet without your smartphone chastising you for it the next time you pick it up. Over at TED they act like this is the grand future the human race has been waiting 10's of thousands of years for.

I'm pretty sure that's the plot to one of the terminator movies.

My bet is you just smoked a little too much pot in your mom's basement. Go outside and get some fresh air and you should be fine.

"all natural" or knot ... you gotta give it a break, obrly

Ummm.. No he's unfortunately right with some of the stuff. Google is at the head of this. Ray kurzweil talks how we will merge with machines in the future. Don't think it's far fetched. Like the NSA info has been known for more than a decade with people that follow alternative media. It's new to many ppl but with others it just confirmed.

Jesus Christ.

I bet you think we'll all get tracking chips implanted in us as well?

Someone has been watching too much Alex Jones

My life philosophy is: Ask yourself what RedScam(TM) would do, then just do the opposite.

It's worked spectacularly well thus far. I guess I'll need to get a tracking chip implanted in my wrist tomorrow.

want to know where I'm going to implant mine?

I'd check with RedScam(TM) first. He may want one up there as well, which means it wood be a terrible mistake.

Sorry mate but these are talks being given by top people in their respective fields. These talks are also being shown at and attended by the top business programs in the country. I personally don't like those people but do the math when they can charge $6,000 a ticket for some of those talks. What these people are saying there "is" infact where technology is headed there's no question about it. And they're the ones pushing it there.
