Until then, these "scandals" are no different than Kim Kardashian's nip-slip or that Paris Hilton video.
- debt 10y agoi think they both hilton and kardashian had nip-slips and leaked videos. maybe that's the future though; privacy is premium service wherein you can dole out whichever tasty bits you like while all the other pleebs live out in the open.
- jdimov10 10y agoNo, that's not really the future. Here's the future: you don't get any privacy, period. Get over it. Live with it. Doesn't matter who you are - you don't get any. Oh, and you know what? The future has already arrived.
- drdeca 10y agoThat seems hyperbolic. If nothing else, the thoughts in my own head are secret enough.
- 1024core 10y ago> Doesn't matter who you are - you don't get any. Really? I doubt it. The rich and powerful get plenty of privacy and protection. It's just the us remaining 98% that don't.
- jdimov10 10y agoNo, the rich and powerful pay boatloads of money for privacy, but don't get anything of substance in return.

You prompted me to learn something. https://gg.govt.nz/role/constofnz.htm https://gg.govt.nz/role/constofnz.htm
