I think you've hit the nail on the head. But some of the above is caused by crazy f'ed up republicans.mbbrutman said:I think we are screwed in lots of ways, and this is just a small piece of it:
- Budget deficit
- Decreasing scientific and engineering competitiveness
- Civil liberties
- Unprovoked and unnecessary wars
- Iran persuing Nukes. (Hope it is a bluff)
- Pakistan selling Nukes
- Etc.

Agreed, those are huge concerns as well. And the end of net nuetrality will instigate every other problem to arise.mbbrutman said:Alexkerhead was originally commenting on network neutrality, but that's just part of a larger pattern of problems. I'm actually not too concerned about network neutrality. The 'players' that the telcos are going after have fairly deep pockets.
Speaking of tech fiascos in the making, here are some more problems we are facing:
- Keyword scanning of email and other traffic
- Log retention .. the Feds want to be able to lookup what you've looked at
- Telephone number harvesting
Surfing isn't anonymous or private anymore. Just assume that. It's being logged and scanned in lots of ways, and it will get worse.

Not to mention about the impacts people have on the
Environment - the list there is huge.
Some which springs to mind:
There's probably heaps of other things which are all
- Land Clearning
- Land Disturbance
- Soil Erosion created by man
- Salinity
- Public Awareness
- Public Views (perception)
- Weeds (you name it)
interconnecting have relationships with - and it's all about
how the sector is run or seen though the eyes of the Govt.

Looks like the end of the internet era is closing in fast. Big brother is watching.
