Roger and I have had many heated arguments about his vision of a zero privacy society. I agree completely with Janine - while intriguing, Roger's proposal ignores basic human psychology and the terrible lessons of history.
During a recent visit, Roger became quite agitated when I accidentally triggered a mildly racy quicktime movie he had stored on his new Centris. He flipped off the monitor and declared that he did not want Betsy to see this clip (a notion which amused Betsy to no end).
Roger, apparently even YOU need a little privacy every now and then. Would you really be willing to face the consequences of the zero privacy world you propose?
