I seem to be the only one who wants robotic assistants, or in-eye computer screens, or anything else like that.

At the end of the day, if someone takes a picture of me..? So what, they have a picture, I'm not exactly too worried.

Every time something new is invented, there is a downside somewhere or other, but at the end of the day, the positive benefits far outweigh the negatives.

I want them too, don't get me wrong. I just see them getting abused, or used the wrong way
I always dreamed of having a computer or some sort implanted inside of my head, being able to have a screen only you could see, control it with eye movements or thoughts. But I know it wont be used responsibly. Someone will use it to cheat on tests, someone else will hide their porn collection on it and watch it in public, other people will use it to hack from anywhere, without giving anything away. The few ruin it for the many.

Stalkers? CIA Agents secretly against you? What are the odds, but like Nick said, stress relieving technology will just make us just lazier, and can sometimes be overly abused. People just won't be the same.

On a more serious tone, I'm gonna miss the good times. Today, society is filled with brats who complain that they can't do the shit they wanna do because their iPhone sucks. And they hate their life because their parents are "assholes" and they live in mansions. Honestly, those AT&T commercials PERFECTLY mimick what I am talking about. You couldnt record more than two shows back then? Bitch please, you were lucky if you could put your VHS tape in time to record your show. If you missed it, tough luck. I creates a lazy society and will eventually create less workers and more programmers. We will be absolutely and COMPLETELY dependent on technology. And as soon as something starts to cut off our technology: global crisis.
