Don't worry about it Bob.....seems the rest of the world isn't worried. For cars to be driverless, some convening authority would have to track them at all times, there's already facial recognition cameras in use, people on Facebook posting about their bowel movements, kids and pets and livestock being "registered" and "micro-chipped", even your online website visits are tracked.
ANY time you have that kind of information that is collected or monitored, there will be abuse. That's one reason I'm so thankful I don't have kids to grow up in this backwards world. Yes, a lot of good has happened, but it all seems offset by all of this bad. ...But go and ask these younger people if any of this matters to them and they'll say it don't bother them one bit. Why? Because they haven't (yet!) been the blunt end of those actions.
Gov't tracks how we use our land, what we grow, how much, where we sell it, what condition, and how much money we get. Gov't has to inspect your new buildings or new renovations.....you know, for your own safety. Companies like Uber get a customer name and know the starting and destination points for that person, as well as travel times. Online companies like Air B-n-B.....same thing. Credit card companies keep track of what you buy, where, price, etc.
This is the world we live in. IF(!!!!!!!) the world can keep a lid on all that information, then maybe it could actually make the world a better, safer place. Problem is, you subscribe to a magazine and you're going to start getting junk mail offers; maybe even telephone solicitors calling. (just one example)
.....I'm writing this off the top of my head. Just try to imagine how much other data is collected on us every single day, with or without our knowledge. Where does it go? Who gains access to it? Is it saved, or does it simply disappear? I doubt seriously it disappears....after spending all that money getting it in the first place. They say knowledge is power, and we're living in the Information Age. Seems to me it can only get worse from here!

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
