So I’m sitting in JFK doing a little philosophizing about Privacy with my friend Ari. Ari is taking the stance that people will soon revolt against their inability to control their privacy – that people today are beginning to crave the privacy the had pre-Internet. My argument is that people are just accepting the idea that privacy is an idea created by society, and not scalable or realistic anymore.
To prove the point, I’m writing a quick blog post to show that you can’t control your own privacy anymore. Because anyone with a laptop, digital camera and internet access can snap a picture and post your whereabouts whether you want them to or not.
Your thoughts on the matter?
