The reason strong bad men don't rob us constantly us because other strong men are legally permitted to do violence unto them. I don't think that's a model that works for the Internet. Instead I think we should take Mr McNealy's words as prescient. Even if you protect your privacy, people you know are still willing to tag you in photos or upload their contact lists. Instead of pretending that we can remain private online perhaps we should be thinking about how to compartmentalise our online identities so that the whole 'us' can't be revealed by an inadvertent mouse click. TLDR: Scott was right, so let's work out what to do next.
