Webstock 8x5 - The Internet is not private get over it

Here is a recording of the session that I presented at Webstock.

Data belongs to those that create it, just as much as you own the footprints you leave in the sand. Some say "everything a user creates, contributes, or shares is theirs, unless they have given away the right explicitly and by free choice." Others say "the Internet is not private get over it!". Language creates our existence, our ability to communicate is changing, as more data is being collected and recorded more collective knowledge is gained. Our kids grow up with cell phones that track their location, broadcast messaging like Twitter and facebook connects people over space and time much like yesteryear where sleepy town NZ grew up with gossip and party lines. Aside from the technology what else has changed?

yeap a lot of people are exposing themselves because all of the social network websites..

beware of what you type in.. or what you use.. and also use all those little switches inside those social networks websites to HIDE the details from people that you DON'T know!
