When Schmidt says 'privacy is dead', he means your privacy.
- dredmorbius 7y agoNB, that specific quote tends not to be associated with Schmidt. His comment on the matter was "If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place". https://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/12/07/schmidt_on_privacy/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/12/07/schmidt_on_privacy/ Larry Ellison (CEO, Oracle) said "Privacy is dead". https://securitycurrent.com/privacy-is-dead-long-live-privacy/ https://securitycurrent.com/privacy-is-dead-long-live-privac... Scott McNeally (CEO, Sun) said "You have zero privacy anyway, get over it." https://www.wired.com/1999/01/sun-on-privacy-get-over-it/ https://www.wired.com/1999/01/sun-on-privacy-get-over-it/ Though, looking back on it, Big Tech really seems to have had it in for privacy for a long time.
