This is so 1984 it isn't even funny.  Once these start rolling out I will be snipping the wires to the camera.

Cutting the throats of those involved with the research, as well as the executives who approved of this project is a solid plan.  Getting their families in the bargain probably isn't a bad idea either.

Yes, obviously any one opposed in any way to this smart plan is a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist.

What makes them think we *want* ads "tailored to us".

What I want is for them to stop barraging me with ads.  Everywhere you go, marketing is in your face.

At any rate, if these devices end up being installed, I'm sure a strategically placed piece of duct tape will solve the problem.

The CONSUMER doesn't want adds "tailored to them".  The ADVERTISERS will pay more for those adds, though.
