have to ship the bits one place or the other.
In November 2008 there was an effort by Google
to show that they were able to
pinpoint a flu outbreak before the Center
for Disease Control could do that.
Based on their sophisticated algorithm they
could tell
that the person doing those searchers had
the flu.
They were searching for chest congestion or
thermometer
or certain types of medication, cold or flu
medication and whenever one of those keywords
would
be entered into Google it would set off a
red flag.
They would pinpoint that person's location
based
on their internet service provider and then
they would put a red dot on the map and over
time we would see lots of red dots in certain
locations on the map and then they shared
that information with the Centres for Disease
Control and sure enough they were able to
pinpoint those outbreaks two weeks in advance.
Now some people might say well gee that's
but when you log on to Google to look something
up you don't do so with
the expectation that Google is going to be
capturing your information,
studying you and handing that information
over to the federal government.
So I think a lot of people find it very invasive
and what it raises is the potential for Google
or really any other Internet or service that
you
use to turn over other sorts of information.
You know?
Who's concerned about abortion rights or who's
a democrat or who's a
republican or you know, who has an interest
in the second amendment.
Well because we don't always know the downstream
risk and the downstream harms.
Their were rumours that a bank had done it
to a cancer
registry that they had taken a Kansas registry
crossed it
with names of people who are in their bank
and then tweaked
the creditworthiness of the people if they
had cancer.
Some day when all of our products and all
other
products have instead of a bar code they'll
have a tiny RFID tag on them we will be able
to
keep track of those products in people's homes.
And their proposal was that a smart refrigerator
would actually have an RFID reader
in the fridge every product that you put in
the refrigerator from the milk to the
you know, the cream cheese to the hot dogs
would all have an RFID tag added to
them in their packaging and so the refrigerator
would actually know it's contents.
There are plans afoot to actually monitor
your garbage.
Every time you throw something into the trash
can the trash can would
actually be equipped with an RFID reader and
would monitor what you do.
Are you throwing into the right trash can?
Is this a recyclable item that you are throwing
