Along this thought, I saw an advertisement for a new show on the History
Channel starting on Thursday, Dec. 8. The premise is a group of people have
to evade a group of trackers who are following them while using the
available cameras to track them. Or something close to that.

 

I think it will be interesting to see what they do with this. To think it
can’t be done is naïve. Anyone who has set up a decent surveillance system
can tell you how simple it might be.

 

There is really no way around it unless you live in the boonies or never
leave the house.

Subject: Big brother, not many care that he's here.

 

This CarrierIQ thing brings up a thought. With a smartphones and other
current technology it is now entirely possible to have your every action
recorded. Who you talk to, what you way, what you and they look like, where
you are and how long you’ve been there and where you went next and how fast
did you travel to get there.

 

“1984” is here, and most people couldn’t care less because the benefits of
the technology outweigh any privacy concerns.

 

The only way to partially “opt out” is to not have a smartphone and drive an
older car, because even then when you walk into stores and make purchases
you are still being watched by cameras/banks. Using cash would get you a
little more stealth

 

Thoughts?
