> well, I can always unplug it.

And how long until this is the norm and we stop even talking about the privacy implications? How long after that point the notion of privacy stops existing?



Yes, this is the slippery slope to 1984. Do you carry a cell phone? Do you use a computer? Do you have windows? Do you ever leave your bunker with 4 foot concrete and steel walls? Yeah, your privacy is compromised already.

No, we won't stop talking about privacy because I said I can unplug this thing. Yes, I am excited about a new type of device coming out that is actually as cool as an iPad, or the Nest.


Sometimes the stupidity of people makes me believe they deserve what is coming to get them.
