Today's theme is privacy:
- How to track down computer thieves - This Slashdot post and responses are both interesting and entertaining and it poses a big question ... if this guy can do it then why can't the police
- Conflicting attitudes towards Privacy - On a similar theme to tracking down computer thieves above how do we feel about tracking our privacy ... according to this NY Times article, if we are normal we should have mixed feelings about our privacy depending on the situation
- Oniontown YouTubers stoned by residents - A couple of teenagers have been sending the small town mentality of a small town (!) called Oniontown (!) ... they were then set upon by the unhappy residents ... I haven't watched the YouTube video but it probably serves them right ... and keeping with today's theme should bring up questions about privacy and rights ... after all a legitimate film maker would have to have asked the residents to film them, wouldn't they?
On a different note
- Muscle sensing shirts helps play tennis better - This tech-wear sounds great but I can't help think that there should be a slightly more worthy use for the technology than helping play sport better
