Well Laurie, if congress is successful in getting certain bills passed, in the name of "cyber security", then it won't be much longer before anything we do with any device connected to the internet is monitored and recorded "just in case" you might be up to somethin. 

And then of course we have these marvels of technology like Google Glass with face recognition, and this little beauty I just read about earlier today - the robobee - smallest flying machine created by man, at just 3cm long and weighs 80mg - its wings flap at 120 bps. It has its own robotic muscle system to make that possible. They're working out the kinks on how to get them to communicate with each other in a swarm and can be used for artificial polination or to send a bunch of them in to monitor a dangerous situation, or look for missing persons. You know all the good stuff of course, cause no one would ever use them to violate your privacy. Which is why Texas and Virginia have both passed measures prohibiting the general public from using them.

Technology is awesome!

Sometimes, the more this stuff advances, the more I wish we were all still wearin pig skins and fighting over piles of wood. Course that may happen yet. They say history always repeats itself.
