Big Brother is Watching, Get Over It?

The laws of privacy have been extremely slow to even generally reach New Zealand and the world. To complain about privacy being threatened on by Internet then is on a completely new level. The reality is that it's probably going to take an exceptionally long time before our judicial system can catch up to all the new technologies which as we speak are draining any thoughts of personal privacy right out of us. By then, the laws we have to protect us probably still won't because something new will come forward to threaten us further. We're living in a world where we cannot hide. The google argument is just the tip of the iceberg in regards to privacy. Security is not going to come any time soon. So, either you become really comfortable with your secrets being shared, or you can keep complaining about it, it might work one day...
