Although the observation seems fairly straightforward, the best next action isn't as obvious? What can we do about big corporations holding all of our data? What can we do about advances in AI? How do we make information more democratic while allowing 'proprietary data'?
It seems naive to think we can simply ask everyone to behave nicely, and regulations wouldn't be able to provide any benefit? The time for prevention has past by.
Beyond worry, move to Montana, and post on Slashdot, what do we do about it?
I think the primary difference is that our large monitors make sense with a good keyboard, mouse, and an OS of our choosing. TVs, at least at my house, aren't configured to use this way. I don't want that type of setup in my living room. These are the reasons that I also dismiss the idea of TV browsers so quickly.
Although, as someone pointed out, 'special sites' could be better viewed on the TV. I hadn't thought of that..

As my mom used to say, "it's better to be a dipshit than an anonymous coward"..

FIRST!
But seriously, why does this matter when everyone has a browser on your phone or tablet? lame..
Remember when Slashdot was cool? Bill Gates bashing, Linux matters, IRC, DSL, and people knew who Rob Malda was..
Remember when calling 'first' was cool?
First
This sounds like a honeypot to me..
