This is one of those things that make me very pessimistic about the future of our civilisation.
Instead of empowering common folk and accelerating our potential as a species what is happening is our thoughts, interests, fears, relationships and most intimate secrets gradually become a commodity in the hands of a few powerful companies.
The trend is clear and I am really fearful for my children's future.
It's really depressing to watch the world change into something many of mankind's greatest thinkers feared the most.
