Clouds.

Uploading all your personal data, banking info, codes, etc.. to an external server is just insane.

New lap tops are all now being designed with no hard drives (to keep them thinner and cheaper) forcing people to use Clouds. Not only are clouds a new way to make more money, but the info they gather and sell is worth even more.

Ah, the Cloud. A great name, sounds so comforting and safe. Sounds much better than "An external computer that stores all your precious information and can be accessed by the highest bidder."

Most adults don't know shit about computers or data protection and kids think storing data on a cloud is normal, so when they are in their 20's, banking, shopping, etc... having all of it stored in a cloud will be the norm.

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING TO US ALL?

CAN'T ANYTHING BE DONE TO STOP THIS? All of us are just fucking sheep being monitored online, drones in the sky with cameras, it's getting worse every year.

It's happening now. Right now and it appears that nobody really gives a fuck. We just watch the trendy commercials about it on TV and think everything is A O.K.

Parents wake the fuck up and wake your kids up about storing personal data.

People go to great lengths buying Norton, etc. to protect their data and try and protect their identities to prevent ID Theft....then they turn around and store all their data on a soft fluffy Cloud. UN FUCKING REAL.
