#13Mass Surveillance is a killer tool for societal control and not much else. 15% faster ambulances for complete loss of privacy? Is it worth it? Would this sort of system even be faster in a less dense area (like most of US vs China)? There are a lot of spurious conclusions drawn from this data. Is WeChat superior? Do I really want my whole life to run through one app? No, no I don't. In fact, I've gone on a social med…
Quick correction - 15% faster was overall, it was 50% faster for ambulances.
Point still stands. In the U.S. our ambulances are equipped with remotes to trigger light changes to improve speed. The roads are also much wider, with bigger shoulders that are less dense, etc. This is a very dubious claim, to be able to achieve 50% faster response times in the U.S., an ambulance would have to on average travel twice as fast, which is not necessarily even safe or desirable from present speeds traveled.

#14Earlier quoted context omitted.
I agree, being fascinated by the confluence of tech, economies, and global struggle. I have no idea how COVID-19, global power struggle, effects of quantitative easing, etc. will play out but I will enjoy watching the show.
Is it a comedy or a horror? I'm having trouble interpreting.
Neither. It’s a tragedy.

> Paytm may not be a direct competitor building a search engine, but all of these use cases are user journeys that never touch Google.
Emphasis in the original. I found this interesting given the target audience of this presentation and what we know from Snowden about the American intelligence community's integration with Google.
