It is funny to see how the internet "folks" concentrate on the internet/virtual data being collected and analysed. What about all the real world interactions driving? walking? shopping? talking in public places? The (inter)banking traffic? Scanning the license plates of ALL cars moving through New York? Reconstructing their paths? Why not, right? That's probably even less raw data that the facebook chit-chat. I believe (no way to "know") that those infrastructures are in place and working 24/7. Misused? Seldom. A huge problem as any large data/info store. For sure. The "balance" between utility and the price tho pay for it for us all ... in the end that is politics. About to change?
