RE: Big Brother Is Watching You And You Don't Care - Unless You're Naked
I can remember when answering machines came out and people were concerned to have a device with a microphone in their house and what that would mean to their privacy.
By comparison today, people freely give their personal information away to companies they know little about who profit from it, carrying surveillance with them everywhere they go without giving it a second thought.
With the advent of the RFID chip, the future seems to be integrating the technology directly with human physiology. Movies are glorifying cyborgs and enhanced realities and if the next generation moves to embrace merging humans with computer enhancements, privacy could become a lost memory.

The sad part is that people do it for fun , because they've never had the real thing, walking with a old man from the nearby village , someone that lived through the "heroic" moments, I'm talking more to google than friends , and even then some just check google , it's like there is already an AI , made by humans, but yes with the documentation and all the pattern recognition that's about to come , I'm not sure why they are even going for those routs. Same with facebook , I've read that they were looking for neurologists to look into brain patterns, so corporations are like a steeming train and most people won't keep up or see the curveball coming , It's truly horrific for me to see how quickly the world changes and traditions get destroyed for the "next big thing" , there are vast differences between generations, peoples and times and somehow everyone wants to disregard that and just stay docile and be a hamster basically.
Where I'm at the "grand" generation are heartfelt and community driven, they've lived nice lives for the most part , struggled a lot and learned a lot, but they stuck together and helped each other out, sure there are the "outcasts" about half of people are disfunctional (drinking, succumb to old age, .. ) , but as a mindset , so cool , so easygoing , inviting, shy, closed off, after them the generation of my parents are way worse , 70% I would deem docile, cigarettes , no exercise , constant complaining , or just working with no real goals, given up on life.
And then there are the pc and phone zombies like me :D , when we are alone we are on a phone :| computers are our best friend and we have truly lost I'm interested to see how the future will develop, but I'm sure if we don't change something and start going in a more grounded direction , we will never achieve personal realization of the majority.
