@mcnee @kshep Interesting. Sounds like we need some legislating here to protect quasi-public areas.

Joel Sax Ken Sheppardson

@kshep That's like saying I opt out of facial recognition by not going for walks.

Joel Sax Dave Cridland

@dwd And no one has explained to me why I can't opt out of track if it is implemented. That's what I have been asking for.

Joel Sax Dave Cridland

@dwd If the shift does something, it means you want something more installed into the system. It suggests non-innocence.

@ev1 Sorry about the repeat. My button got stuck. I was emphatic, but not ~that~ emphatic!

Joel Sax Ken Sheppardson

@kshep It strikes me as a techie power trip. "We can do it, so to hell with privacy."

Joel Sax Ken Sheppardson

@kshep That same argument is made for face recognition devices. You walk around in public, you can be tracked. Don't buy the argument.

@ev1 I find it extremely odd that so-called progressives support implementing a technology that makes it easier to conduct surveilance.

Joel Sax Evan Prodromou

@evan I think the privacy angle needs to be considered w/ track. If you are going to have it, people should be able to block it.

Joel Sax Dave Winer

@dave I always find watching CNN dizzying. Personally, I've been looking at the Times of India for my information.

@seedoflife Look for the WP-Security plugin. It covers things that you might not have realized needed to be covered.

Joel Sax Roney Smith

@seedoflife We liked Wordpress from the moment we installed it. Do you use it on your own site or at the Wordpress site?
