@thesensiblesupervillain4625

@@toddhoward7649 Okay, there's a lot of reasons why the war of independence is unwarranted, but to say that America was mad that taxes were too high is both untrue and silly. The taxes were very light, even for the time. Americans were upset on principle, because their local governments were already taxing them and they felt that parliament didn't have the right to levy taxes on them because they had no representation. Additionally, the most controversial tax introduced in that time was the stamp act, and America wasn't worried that mailing would become too expensive, they were worried that the British would use the tax to simply not let Americans publish documents the British didn't like, censoring a free press. This is why a free press is a core issue in multiple founding documents, BTW At the end of the day, America was upset not because of anything individual that the British were doing but more generally because the British were attempting to exert control over it's 13 colonies after having been almost entirely hands-off for over a century. America had gotten used to being effectively free already, and didn't welcome being controlled in any way by a government that didn't represent them and a country that didn't respect them. Sorry for going off like this, stuff like this just bugs me.

I realise why I started keeping my phone with me... when it became socially acceptable to get angry at people for failing to answer their call whenever you call them. Seriously, the number of times I've left my phone somewhere and returned to find so many misses calls THEY then give me shit because I was ever not able to be contacted. Work, family, friends. ALL of them may need to contract me at any time and it's ALWAYS a freaking emergency, it's always time critical. I can see how this personal computer ended up being embedded in our lives, no one ever thought they'd need one till phones suddenly became more and more advanced to be effective computers.

In civil law, court cases can also be bricks building up, but these walls are often torn down with a change of statutory law, as these court cases are tightly bound to the statute they interpret.

+Polly The Parrot Bank data, movement data. The latter alone can get you into so much trouble if it were available the way the FBI wanted - all that is needed to happen is that your name comes up, because a suspect has a similar name. Your phone is checked (without you even knowing - external access), you happened to have movement data near that of a terrorist, bam you're answering questions in a dark cell with no hope of even hearing an attourney. Scary nonsense? No, a reality for many people that had no contacts to any sort of terrorism, yet were caught in the net anyway - including getting shipped to Guantanamo. On terrorism, you're guilty unless proven innocent.

+Fen Y you are stretching. while i agree that the government should not have access to our data, the FBI hasnt moved anyone from US to Guantanamo. They have no authority to do something along those lines. Not even the CIA has moved someone from US to Guantanamo. Only 1 US citizen was ever held there and he was arrested in Afghanistan. Now back to the FBI... they need more than a name and a place to hold someone without seeing an attorney. and they have no authority to move people offshore. there needs to be a clear and eminent threat in order for them to get a judge to sign off on holding someone without seeing an attorney. so overall the message is correct in regards to fighting government surveillance, but spewing fearmongering nonsense doesn't help. We get mad at the government when they use the fear of terror to push laws. Well you are using the fear of surveillance to fight the government. It is no better than what they are doing. Facts should be the primary motivator, not fear.

Fen Y I don't keep bank data on my phone. If you do, you might want to rethink that. what happens when you loose it? And if i were afraid of the government tracking my movements, I wouldn't let my phone access my location. If you're still paranoid that they're going to track you, then get rid of your phone. It's that easy.

HotSkull Going from collecting data on suspected terrorists to probing your brain to read your sub-conscience is a bit of a leap, don't you think? That technology doesn't exist-likely never will. And if it did, there is a clear difference between reading someone mind and reading the drunk texts they sent. Seriously, what the hell do you keep on you phone that's so incriminating. Will the fuzz find pics of you and your boys getting stoned on 4/20? Is your girlfriend going to find out about your side chicks? Do you keep the coordinates of the bodies you've hidden in your contacts or something?

+YourPalAL Then don't install those programs. Write your own. Do you know what prevents newcomers from learning to program the most? Syntax. Today's computers can't communicate with people easily, so we invent programming languages with consistent syntax which are then compiled into machine code. When you put chips in your head, they won't just understand your clear, English thoughts. They will understand the true meaning behind every thought you have. It won't be like English, where a sentences can be restructured, words can be replaced with hundreds of synonyms, and phrases can have completely different meanings depending on which syllable is stressed. The computer will understand you at a level beneath language. You will use the chip in your head like you use your arm. Programming languages will become a thing of the past. Sharing source code would be tricky, like trying to share music whilst being unable to read it, but one assumes a kind of telepathy could be devised with which one could convey the meaning behind programs without words.

It is more accurate to mention that the reason laws are built atop one another is NOT just because thats how it works, but because a court deciding today's case will make use of the reasoning and discourse in a previous related case. Assuming the court today is on the same hierarchical tier, the previous case is not binding. Basically the court says "Hmm this is a tricky issue, it will take me a long time to think fully on the matter. I can cut this time down drastically by starting at what was until today considered the end of the matter" We don't follow precedents just 'cause. We examine previous reasoning, apply it to the current context, and examine whether or not the conclusion reached should be the same given the differences in the case and in society today. Although this places significantly more weight on the highest courts in the land getting their decisions right. Legislation however, is not built upon other laws. Its more like an etchasketch, except you can erase parts of the image or the whole or just add to it (and then its the courts job to tell us whether its a train or a bus or a guy surfing). The only way legislation is built atop older laws is through complacency or a desire to extend rather than repeal. Despite some faults in the reasoning (Its possible you were just trying to simplify), your conclusions are entirely accurate

I find it funny watching things like this when I'm still using a flip-phone. ;) I hate smartphones, and refuse to buy one... and when I see people spending hours upon hours fiddling with their phones, it just blows my mind. I have no desire whatsoever to join the ranks of the "phone people," and am perfectly happy going through my entire life without the conveniences a smartphone has to offer. If you truly do feel your phone is an extension of your self, I'd like to issue a challenge: try going one week without it, and see what happens. You may find yourself feeling a bit freer by week's end!

Well, but that's kind of my point. If I don't need one, I'd say nobody REALLY needs one. If I were issued a challenge to go a week without my PC, console, laptop, etc., I'm pretty sure I could do that (assuming I could get the time off of work, anyway, since I kind of have to use a computer for my job!), and I might even enjoy the experience -- I certainly have in the past, when I've taken a break from technology and just kicked back on vacation and such.
