Or they will learn in an amazingly efficient way, spend more time on the subjects that interest them, have a deeper understanding of their strengths and meet others across the globe who share their interests and build deep relationships independent of superficial niceties provided those around then who share no interest except geographic closeness and use these relationships to forge new ideas and execute an an extremely high level to solve problems like mall shootings. Or what you said.

I really donâ(TM)t think we are as actively manipulated as everyone seems to claim. Our comments back and forth do more to my endorphins to manipulate behavior than anything the government or a company could cook up. And no, I gain freedom. By taking me less time to complete a task I have to do, I gain more time to do the tasks I want to. And that, at the end of the day, is why I think we are all much more free than we have ever been. Thanks in part to sacrificing privacy.

I hope millennials start tattooing the number on their arms or something...

YEP!!! If they got it right, it could actually lead to more positive outcomes, reduce misdiagnoses and have a better understanding of long term impact on treatment. But instead it will be a trillion dollar project and end up a site where state senators creep on ex wives last doc visit.

I guess my question was more philosophical than anything. I donâ(TM)t think any given individual would claim they are being actively manipulated. If anything, they might claim their freedom is being supported by this transition away from privacy. 1 example. Navigation has been greatly improved due to the fact that we are ok with Google/Waze/whoever using our information for the common good. I spend less time in traffic due to Waze. So in that case, giving up privacy gives me more freedom, not less. If someone uses data maliciously, with direct harm to oneâ(TM)s freedom, like a blackmail attempt I guess, that would be one case for regulation to step in. But even in that case, if we were honestly open, even that invasion of privacy wouldnâ(TM)t be restrictive of freedom. Because we would be open to share and discuss our actions. Not hide them.

Why is privacy a necessary requirement for freedom?

You can stop reading. I rarely use Facebook anymore. There are others who are sick of the feed too. If people really care, the market will fix this.

On our way to 200 tunnels deep, you donâ(TM)t think we have figured out a way to transmit signals in those tunnels? Or are you taking the word radio literally - as in only using radio waves? Oofda.

Feel like this entire article was written for the punchline = Unfortunately, snail research doesn't move quickly

Could you imagine being 200 tunnels underground and you hear âoescreeeechâ as your car comes to an abrupt halt. You hear on the radio, âoetunnel 2010202 has encountered a slight inconvenience, no ETA for when traffic will resume...â thatâ(TM)s the start of a sci-fi thriller if I ever heard one.

Now we are on to something. Slightly fresher breath and just buzzed enough to not care. But what do you do with all of the vodka bottles? Iâ(TM)ve got it... a vodka dispensary

Bring in your mouthwash decanter and pay by the ounce.
