My phone supposedly has some of the latest and greatest finger print recognition software and it still screws up. So like, I grow a beard and my password fails. What if I had one and shave it. Or....gods forbid I get older and age like every other damn living thing! Lol google comes up with some cool stuff sometimes, but idk. I agree...are we really ready for more annoyance and privacy invasions? Minority Report style adds etc. The future is not at all like I pictured it when Doc Brown showed me the way. I'll take the 80s again and less personal data infringement.

This gave me a smile. The 1980s had very little personal data on the internet to infringe.

Can you imagine how it would be to turn the clock back to that time technology-wise? Everything would grind to a halt.

I get your point though. It would be nice if the hackers and attempts to stay ahead of them. along with corporations trying to find ways to market to people by invading their privacy would go back to a simpler time.
