Scary.

Sandra: I didn't look closely, I thought it was you! Senara: Oh good, glad we got that worked out :) Vlad: A glam 1984 – I love it!

Sandra: I didn’t look closely, I thought it was you!

Senara: Oh good, glad we got that worked out :)

Copy your license?! Wow... And yes, there is a new Sandra since there was this diet pill thing, but to make it easier I can be "Senara" from now on, as I always use that name on internet. Also it's safer for me :) you are kidding me, right? Copy your license?! Wow…

And then, why would they even do something that doesn't make them more highly-rated by videotaping it? It's gonna be all like that Orwell's novell, but, luckily, more glamourous :) It’s a conspiracy, of course, but there’s yet another half of it: not only people are going to be voluntarily spying on themselves, but also their behavior itself is to be engineered through all those “ratings” – why would anybody videotape some things they do if it doesn’t make them more popular?

Shadow: yeah, some people are digital ghosts (like you and me) and some are very open. Vetti: sounds like you’re not revealing too much Massif: seeing your criminal record is a bit like seeing your “permanent record” at school Sean: it’s what I do best Sandra: some nightclubs here say they have a right to take a scan of your driver’s license. Maliha: I think parents should take a WAY more active role with kids. It’s hard to find the right balance but the absolute ignorance of some parents is scary. Hippygirl: tea has always been our last, best defence Nazli: nice to see you again! :D There are certainly ways to mask you IP address and more people should probably do it. Too many people have no idea how exposed they are online. Arvind: it’s a good idea
