Oh how true……..was visiting family over the holiday and the kids all lived on line with their “favorite” friends. I asked one if she would rather go over and visit her best friend at her house and she said not really. I asked how can you quantify her as your best friend if going to see her isn’t as nice as an electronic emanation…….she couldn’t answer the question. I got her RCA Victor dog look…….

This is a work by Banksy (I think). If you’re not familiar with his work, look him up.
Raydawg, I like you, therefore, I must warn you- Fuck with I-S at your own risk.
Although you might be safer dropping the soap in the shower at Sing-Sing.
But I am curious: what “side” are you on, and who’s on it?

They are in our living rooms! The US Patent Office turned down this patent application BUT the fact that they applied means the technology exists, and the Patent Office turn down does not preclude the use of this technology. That is FCC jurisdiction.
“Internet services, and audio programming via a set-top box device. Such access devices have also provided service providers (e.g., television service providers) with an ability to present advertising to users. For example, designated advertisement channels may be used to deliver various advertisements to an access device for presentation to one or more users. In some examples, advertising may be targeted to a specific user or group of users of an access device….To illustrate, detection facility 104 may detect that a user is singing or humming a song. Using any suitable signal processing heuristic, detection facility 104 may identify a name, genre, and/or type of the song. Based on this information, detection facility 104 may determine that the user is in a particular mood. For example, the user may be singing or humming a generally “happy” song. In response, detection facility 104 may determine that the user is in a cheerful mood. Accordingly, one or more advertisements may be selected for presentation to the user that are configured to target happy people. It will be recognized that additional or alternative ambient actions performed by a user (e.g., eating, exercising, laughing, reading, cleaning, playing a musical instrument, etc.) may be used to determine a mood of the user and thereby select an appropriate advertisement for presentation to the user.”
If I sing a made up song, real mad and angry — fuck da government in the head! fuck em hard until their dead!!” ….. will I get advertisements for an AK47?
MarshRabbit, they are literaly doing that kind of thing now. I just posted a comment last week about a couple who have no cats or desire to have cats that decided to talk about buying cat food while in the presence of their mobile phones. Within hours they were being served up ads for cat food.
Former CIS director David “BetrayUs” Petraeus bragged in a videotaped interview that our appliances of the future would watch and listen to us. It seems a single pixel on a modern TV can actually be a camera and microphones can be hidden anywhere in a TV. In addition he bragged about how your washing machine may report back what you wash temps are and how frequent you wash clothes plus your fridge/freezer, in conjunction with rfid chips in food packaging/labels will be able how often to dive into the ice cream container versus the salad greens.
The interviewer was incredulous and asked who was going to pay for all this and Mr. BetrayUs said, “that’s the beuaty of it, you will when you purchase the goods.” It was even discussed that they could use modern power grids to piggy back those RFID signals on the power lines to report back to home base.

Industrial Society and Its Future, Theodore Kaczynski
‘The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human being to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” countries.’

Brilliant detective work goop eye; since it says: “Via banksy” below the picture.

You’re warning me against IS? You gotta be fucking kidding me.
Yeah, I’m terrified of a silicon-chip-whatever-the-fuck-he-makes technician from Spokane, WA.
My people come from Eastern WA; I ain’t afraid of that mook. Besides, he’s only got one good eye; bad depth perception.
RatDawg- Looks to me like you only have one good eye, just sayin’.
You know, I never noticed that before. Good eye (pun intended).
Not bad for a guy that can’t see shit himself.
You never did make good on your pledge to hang it up on TBP. I guess the lure of schooling the unwoke was too strong?
Damn Ratty, just when I was startin’ to believe you are on our side. I was even going to put you up for membership in the TBP Freedom Caucus.
Just an observation with old tired eyes Dawg.
Flattered.
But I am curious: what “side” are you on, and who’s on it?
