If you have a phone, as you walk around a shopping center or store will are being tracked.

If you linger in the baby aisle, expect to get baby ads and coupons without asking for them. You might even find out your teenage daughter is pregnant from coupons you get.

Very intrusive: Get served ads to your phone and all devices based on store browsing and the kind of stores. You have no choice to opt out.
Medium intrusive: Get asked if you would like coupons for what they think you like. Ads on devices or apps that are ad supported are targeted.
Low level: You get coupons on your receipt based on your walking pattern and habits. (this already happens)

Future exploitation, the terrifying final form.
Location based A.I. scans your physical body for any and all brand name clothing. Tied into the parking lot cameras, it logs your car and plate number. Using sets of data (The estimated outfit cost, car value, car color psychological assessment, insurance carrier) it evaluates your income bracket and psychological profile.
A.I. scans all store records for purchases that match what you are wearing. If the purchases is detected to have not been made at the store, coupons and ads targeted at those articles are sent (You too can get Feragamo shoes here).
Each time you stop, the time and location and nearby goods are noted. Any regular walking patterns are logged. If you walk the same pattern every time, the lcd screens change to ads targeting you along your route.
As you approach merchandise displays, eye tracker record what items you look at and what in the adverts your eyes followed.
As follows: 15seconds female cleavage, 5seconds product, 1second dog.

Unregulated ,the future of consumer exploitation is terrifying.

What they will do is snoop your connection for when you input the password. Https connection? They will have the cert keys already.

You might as well be using open to send the password.

Unless you are uploading locally encrypted files to the cloud (for convenience I suppose) and never sharing keys except in person you should be fine.

Until they kick your door in that is.

I always find it funny that they make someone's achievement seem less than great by calling them an amateur.

Spy on everyone else agreement.

With the assault on privacy and human rights, why would I ever want to have my credentials
across a multitude of sites?

Then new trend will be towards obfuscation, not sharing.

Meanwhile the world evolves and the dinosaurs think that by roaring louder they will divert the extinction that is free economy.

Both Zynga and Facebook are doomed and clueless.

Social media is not multi generational. Sites become unfashionable.

Already young kids shun facebook and it's only a matter of time before facebook morphs into a 50's and over dating site.

The problem with getting unpopular is huge swaths of users are effectively dead ends for active users, so just like myspace you can message 50 people and get 2 replies.

Any social media site should be seen as having a maturity point, and a falloff to where it must morph into something else, like a dating site for whatever generation still uses it.

hiring people to work in your store who can't afford the product. Ford paid his workers well so they could afford his card. Apple store has to search it's workers to prevent theft. Maybe if they paid them better they wouldn't have to worry about this.

I was just at liquidations for three schools where they tried this. Somehow they think that throwing high technology at bad students will somehow transform them into good students. The reality is three schools failed to perform, even with millions of dollars in apple miracle products. These children have a poor home structure, poor social structure that frowns on those who are smart as "acting white", a culture they idolizes those who chase quick money and material goods, and no penalties for parents who barely raise their kids. This too will fail, as technology is NOT a substitute for good parenting.

If ancient times, it was the grape, honey and figs.

I would rather wait a week than pay the 10% sales tax I have to endure in my state.

Once they start charging sales tax, bye bye amazon for me.

Casual hardware users don't care what OS is on a device, it just has to be the "in" device of the year.

Microsoft is slowly alienating the users who keep it alive, until it become irrelevant and so
similar to the competition all it will have to fall back on is features and innovation, which it is no longer
a leader in.

I've never seen a company so eager to destroy their own user base though forced , unwanted, change.

Under 60, Sennheiser px100-ii.

...it's probably never going to make you a penny developing for these devices.
