In twenty hundred and twenty four
A Sea of Waves will roar,
Light will follow sound :
And , in Smell and Taste
Earth will abound ,
Brain will hide no more
Your secrets gore
!
500 years later , on 07 July 2017 ,
I re-envisioned above prophesy ( no doubt, cooked up by me ! ) in :
where I talked of how technology is on
its way to capture ( from every human being ) ,
·
“ SOUND WAVES “ ( Audio )
·
“ LIGHT WAVES “ ( Video )
·
“ TOUCH WAVES “ ( Feel the SKIN )
·
“ SMELL – TASTE “ WAVES
·
“ BRAIN WAVES “ ( EEG )
Even though this might have sounded a
bit Nostradamus-like 17
months ago , it seems just around the corner !
Read what Microsoft President Brad Smith said 2 days
back :
“For the first time, the
world is on the threshold of technology that would give a government the ability to follow anyone anywhere, and everyone everywhere.
It could know exactly where you are going, where you have been and where you were yesterday as well.
And this has profound
potential ramifications for even just the fundamental civil liberties on which
democratic societies rely.
Before we wake up and find
that the year 2024 looks like
the book ‘1984,’
let’s figure out what kind
of world we want to create, and what are the safeguards and what are the
limitations of both companies and governments for the use of this technology.”
Question :
Can we assume that “
Privacy is dead “ , given that ,
OUTDOOR
* governments
around the World are installing millions of CCTV cameras at every nook and
corner , to protect its citizens against
terrorism

Each and every Internet of
Things [ IoT ] connected device ( ALEXA / Google Home do not even remotely resemble a camera ) ,
would capture our videos 24*7 , and transmit it to the servers of Device
Manufacturers / Owners of Operating Systems / App Developers / Service
Providers ( ISPs / MSPs )
How much protection would
our proposed DATA PROTECTION LAW
provide us ?
Those needing some proof , may want to look up :
