Presenting the end of privacy as we know it...I know that's been said before, but this time it's for real.

Everything in society is getting "smarter" except for the population.

As somebody who relies on her glasses to see, I can't believe that this would do anything but annoy the freaking heck out of me.

When I first saw this thread, I thought this was refering to this:

Google is now planning to integrate data across all of it's services: Gmail, YouTube, Google search, Google news, Google Scholar, Chrome, Google maps, etc. to create a "full picture" of each user. You cannot opt out. If you use any of those services, your data will be tracked and that data will be integrated and used for Google's marketing and development purposes.

I await news of the compulsory implantation of a "Google cortical chip" in every citizen. This wouldn't be happening if Barney Google still had control of the company.

The sad thing is, it won't be compulsory. People will voluntarily line up for it.

Couldn't have said it better myself. A huge evolutionary leap in the death of one's privacy.

And I thought texting while driving was bad, I can only imagine what the roads will be like with these things out there.
