Re: VR
Maybe if Augmented Reality merges with Virtual Reality then things will all combine as people "see" everything through tech-goggles. AR in my opinion has more potential than VR, but maybe there won't be a distinction in the near future.

Re: VR
@mhhf1ve I think you are right both of them would merge as it would make sense from technological point of view...

Re: VR
AR just has a minor problem with creepiness and privacy. Not sure how or if those issues will ever get resolved fully or if everyone will just learn to live with greatly restricted privacy and some invasive and constant data mining.

Re: VR
@mhhf1ve interesting point :) for me privacy is things of the past... I no longer expect any privacy anymore anywhere online or in real life... but time will tell what consumers want in exchange to have this technology...

Wow. That seems like an extreme way to live, but I suppose we're trending in that direction. I'm not so comfortable with that kind of lifestyle because it seems more than a bit creepy. It's like an episode of Black Mirror coming to reality.

Augmented Reality could become so useful that everyone will forgo their privacy concerns (if there's anyone left that still has them!), but I guess I'm not that much of an early adopter.

Re: VR
@mhhf1ve our Canadian laws is a bit strange and we do have less privacy compare to USA citizens... but we have better healthcare.. 

in my youth days I work security and got good interactions with the cops and from what I know from last 10 - 15 years privacy things of the past in Canada... I just accept it... I'm not saying I agree or disagree - I just accept it as a way of life... New IT age...

Re: VR
Batye, you should still be able to set up VPNd and Tor in Canada, right? Those things won't help much when everyone is walking around with live streaming cameras on their heads, recording everything and uploading it to the cloud for machine learning algorithms to process. The only way to retain privacy might be to go off the grid completely.

Re: VR
@mhhf1ve I know Icould do it :) but I do not bother about creating anonimity... as in my childhood days I spend time in Eastern Europe - where everyone watches everyone... it nothing new to me... I survive then... I will survive now... adaptability is a key... "say nothing see nothing you are no one with out name... :) " I just live it :)

Re: VR
> "everyone watches everyone.."

I wonder how "everyone watching everyone" will actually work in the Augmented Reality future.. People already post "Live" videos of themselves on Facebook and on Vine/Snapchat/etc -- so in a way, people are watching other people all the time (and occasionally those videos go viral).

I can't imagine how much "worse" things will be when AR/VR goes viral. Or maybe we'll all just be zombies watching VR kittens to calm our brains....
