You know why this version of ourself is not owned by us? Because the government is owned lock, stock, and barrel by commercial interests, that's why. It isn't that way in Europe, so it doesn't HAVE to be that way. But in America, your information can be bought and sold without so much as a "Thank you." Of course, for myself, I keep off Facebook and don't post pictures all over the internet. Still, just because you buy a product from a company, they should not be allowed to sell that info to anyone else they please. Sounds like Hoback has suddenly seen the corporate light. Lots more money in it when you work with the corporate giants rather than fight them! Traitor.
Great talk. Really nailed it with the ownership perspective.
