A Phone that Knows Where You're Going

Jesus that's creepy. I think the thing I'll find hardest to assimilate to in the future will be the lack of privacy. Right now, I can do whatever I want on the net, say whatever I want and not have to worry. Nobody knows. It looks like in a while, some fat guy behind a telstra desk is going to be watching my every move and hawking every google entry.. Well he can go get f'd!

What if one of us forgot to turn off the audio of this phone?

Imagine standing in a subway going somewhere and you're surrounded by people - all of sudden, the phone squawks in a loud, clear voice asking "By analyzing your previous route patterns, are you going to Candy's Brothel?"
What are you without the sum of your parts?

Well, they'll still give you leery stares.

I would just step off the train and wait for the next one. I'll make sure to turn off the audio this time! Lol
