Young blindly build Facebook like apps, old build a CCTV network.

Everything feels scary, try walking around at 2 a.m. and not feeling it. People are tired of it.

I don't think that all the surveillance will work. You always find the most amount of sketchy people around police stations. The cameras will make things worse. Good people will flee to other neighborhoods, were they are not being watched.

Fundamentally, why arn't things safe?


Because everyone might own a gun? I live in a fairly large German city and I am not aware of any no go areas there at night or day. Some areas of Berlin and Hamburg might have them but generally we are pretty safe here.


This isn't the internet we were given. This is the internet that we lost. Everything is locked down. Web pages with more style than content. ISP's capping upload speed, preventing me from running a small home server.


What about using a harness to support yourself upright, but without the stress on your legs. Or, one of Honda's Exoskeleton devices http://www.gizmag.com/honda-leasing-walking-assist-device-ex....
