  19. Marketing Ideas on Privacy Threat in New RFID Travel Cards? · · Score: 1

    They could Use the information to Change ads. For example You visit a "popular" store often. The marketing company contracts with that store to track how much you visit. The marketing company could have billboards on the side of the street, or in a mall, and they read your ID tag. They could then change the ad to target it towards your shopping history. I say no to the whole Idea.

  20. Really... on Xbox 360 Doesn't Want To Be Hardcore · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If they are trying to be family friendly, they need to become more simple, put in the disk, and play. Seems to me like Microsoft is making yet another PR stunt to gain traction on the 360.

  21. How far will it go... on U.S. Governments Advised to Use Open Source · · Score: 1

    Some might say that opensource opens the possibilities for threats. We know that this is not the case, but I'm interested to see if this document gets through the first wave of government readers.

  22. Not I... on Philips Patents Technology to Force Ad Viewing · · Score: 1

    I dont know how they will get customers to buy this... I Certainly wont buy something that Blackmails me into watching ads. Good idea for marketing, bad idea for sales.
