Police State

I've never understood this internet of things. Why would I want my refrigerator on the internet to be hacked? Then I realized NSA would love to have my refrigerator connected to the internet so it could monitor everything I ate, but since it didn't offer anything to me, I didn't see it going anywhere. Now I know why Google wants it. Google plans to use ad subsidies to entice people to purchase internet appliances so NSA can spy on them better and make money. It's twisted. I remember when the internet standards were pushing push technology, and I was one of the few people who fought it. Everybody around me thought it would be great. I knew it would be a nuisance or worse. I was right then, and now the internet of things is basically a bribe to invite unwanted ads and spies into your house.

The White House and House of Representatives make spying reform proposal worthless, just as predicted.
