This technology represents the implementation of the idea of a pervasive ever-present human surveillance system that gathers and stores data whenever it is made available.
What are some benefits (there are many), what impact does it have on culture and our ideals we hold dear (such as freedom, privacy, liberty), and can this technology be regulated by a powerful representative government or will it be a gray area that will be exploited?
AFAIK, the latter is the situation. The corporations and the military-industrial complexes are going full-steam and having a field day with so many intrusive projects while the lumbering mammoth governments (with dinosaur politicians from another non-technical era) have yet to update privacy/technology/database laws in matters of such utmost importance.
We are not even asking the right questions and too few have any awareness...unless we want to green light everything and say "so it infringes on the privacy you have when you're outside in public parking lots...LOL /trollface!" and let everything pass by without giving any thought to long-range consequences.
Quote: | "The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values (of Liberty). Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities." Zbigniew Brzezinski (Between Two Ages, 1970)

Zbigniew Brzezinski is no kook btw.
Anyway, I think a lot of you guys here are taking things way too lightly and not thinking much about our future.
