It's rare to see the human race be proactive on issues of this scale. The NSA's "spying" is probably a baby-step towards just more of the same. With a couple changes in management, throw in a few more incidents....who knows. Cannot predict the future but you sure can hyperbole the fuck out of it.
The NSA started scanning itself causing infinite recursion....like looking at yourself through a mirror through a mirror, except digitally. I have infinite bank accounts and I have infinite hits on cougarfinder.com
Would you rather deal with flesh and blood politicians or a 'complex set of algorithms' that: 1. gather data from everyone into one central location (done), 2. Run Monte-Carlo simulations inputting the data gathered into random combinations of governmental systems and subsystems. 3. program police robots to kick your ass.
Wait wait wait...the second they put down their soda cans and do something "external to the game" you complain? And it's not even external...I was hoping for actually getting out of one's chair and walking over to another's view screen to spy on the enemy....or getting information by sleeping with one of the enemy's hot sisters.....or better yet screw the game just hang with the sister. What were we talking about?
QC tells developers that their product sucks and then tells the boss their product sucks and why. Then the developer has to fix things in a timely manner like their getting paid or something....its horrifying.
OTOH, user's just give vague feedback and allow the developer more opportunities to be condescending...much like it when IT snickers at you when you can't do something because you don't have the correct permissions/roles. This process also allows the developer opportunities to manufacture job security through poor design and/or setting self serving goals.
What if WE post the ads? Would that stop the spy's?......
"Hey everyone, check out of this picture of me climbing my first mountain. Sure wouldn't have been able to do it without this cold refreshing Coke!"
The internet started far more distributed than it is now, and people flocked en-mass to centralized networks to which they could give complete control over their data and communications. People do not think beyond their immediate personal convenience, so any such idea for the long term good is doomed from the start if it requires the slightest bit of forethought.
My god man! Did you even think of the repercussions before posting that!
Start posting madly on your social networks on how you are such a great astronaut, phrenologist, sharpie shooter, and day-time tv show star; your generosity towards the RAWD (Retarded African Wild Dog) foundation; your hobby as a Soucier specializing in spiritual sautes.
Because posting your actual information to get a little acknowledgment from 'friends' was so worth it.
+1 This is exactly how I feel. Great advice. Now to convince management.....

What next, the five year old girl gets flown to the capitol to cook a batch of meth in the bathtub?
You obviously haven't taken the tour of the white house.
They sure do like to vote though.

Great, just great. Now we need an app to track company patterns that may indicate possible attacks.
If (when) our mountains of garage reach a certain height we can just put our telescopes on top.
Yes but this article clearly intends that you use a strangers left hand.
I doubt the implication is that you can sit around on your ass popping these pills and expect to get buff...
