Recent "advances" in computing technology deny any possibility of privacy. But fools will tell you to rush to use technology that spies on you and controls you, because otherwise you'll be left behind in the 90s.

The article uses the term "cloud" to encourage people not to think carefully about new technology. For the sake of clear thinking, please don't use that either.
