Tangential: From a philosophical perspective, I wonder if notion of asking human beings if they are robots, will soon escape the space we consider virtual? In sci-fi (which more or less informs the masses not involved in such fields and have more sway over public opinion than say HN or LW), the premise focused on is that people seemed more concerned with asking robots/automata if they are human. I'm starting to wonder if such questions will become moot.
Though, I wonder if you can start to defeat such systems by slurping up headers sent on public networks (like coffee shops, public wi-fi in large cities, airports, etc) and with techniques like ssl striping, to obtain local-storage info being sent in the body.
