Why privacy will always be an issue (one reason of many)
"Technology is scary! People will use all these status and twitter and facebook updates to find out when you're not home and come and steal all your DVDs! At least that was the ballyhoo last week when the site PleaseRobMe launched. Turns out, they were just reinventing the fear wheel. Andy Baio found an article from 1983 that warned consumers that burglars would know by your answering machine picking up that you weren't home, and one from 1977 that advised against posting funeral notices in the paper, lest robbers make off with the silver while you're burying grandpa. The more things change, the less they do."
