Well, don't forget that McAfee was basically making a sales pitch. If it does indeed work, we'll see how long it takes to break it. Who knows, it could be something that changes everything (unlikely). As far as the hunter gathered thing goes: looking for food is not like looking for apps for one's phone. Given the jiggliness and paleness of the majority of Americans, I doubt that it will ever come to that. Besides, that's part of the pitch: "buy my doodad that does that thing you want, conveniently!"
