Life Recorder

Bruce Schneier writes "In 2006, writing about future threats on privacy, I described a life recorder: A 'life recorder' you can wear on your lapel that constantly records is still a few generations off: 200 gigabytes/year for audio and 700 gigabytes/year for video. It'll be sold as a security device, so that no one can attack you without being recorded."

    I don't condone those actions but its probably a reaction to the following...

    You are on a road that is heavily used by traffic and should not have bicyclists on it in the first place.

    You are 5 feet away from the curb and slowing up traffic. Your distance from the curb keeps changing making passing extremely dangerous for the driver and puts the you at risk.

    You ignore stop signs and street lights.

    Bicycles are traffic.

    There are restrictions, such as freeways, but this is true for most roads.

    Just try and convince bicyclists they have to follow the rules of the road too. Most of them seem to think any piece of pavement is fair game and the rules of the road; even common courtesy do not apply to them.
