Cool technology comes at a price. Consider yourself warned.
“Consider the smart phone. At any given moment, it – and therefore your carrier – knows within a few feet exactly where you’re standing. It knows when you’re stationary or walking – and the direction you’re heading. It knows who you stood next to on the transit bus, that you walked through Washington Square today when a political rally took place. It knows what time you went to the polls to vote. It can detect your conversations and background noises. It knows where and when you took every photograph. And it watches your every text and e-mail message. For better or worse, much of this information is being monitored, crunched aggregated and analyzed.”
