Already Above What We Consider Safe
by noteworthy at 7:47 am EST, Nov 9, 2010

James Bridle:

Everything should have a history button.

Marc Rotenberg:

It's no surprise that governments and vendors are very enthusiastic. But from a privacy perspective, it's one of the most intrusive technologies conceivable.

David Clark:

Don't forget about forgetting.

Matt Warman:

Users could sue websites for invading their privacy and would have a right to be "forgotten" online, under new proposals from the European Union.

Maria Fife:

It's gotten to the point where they need to be in all of our decisions.
They don't trust us to make good choices on our own.

Dr. Yefim Sheynkin:

Millions and millions of men are using laptops now, especially those in the reproductive age range. Within 10 or 15 minutes their scrotal temperature is already above what we consider safe, but they don't feel it. You can put a pillow beneath your computer and it still won't protect you.

Bill Bryson:

It has been calculated that if your pillow is six years old (which is the average age for a pillow), one-tenth of its weight will be made up of sloughed skin, living and dead mites, and mite dung.

Mason, Waters, Wright, and Gilmour:

And you run and run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
