iCloud is comming

Postby viking60 » 06 Jun 2011, 23:00

ImageSteve Jobs has revealed how his new iCloud will be working. Update your iPhone and all your otther gadgets will be updated too. "You don't even have to think about it". Any gadget you update on will automatically update all the others.
Ahem... One piece of advice: Think about it!
When Steve Jobs says he will not allow nudity on his tablets - that means that he can control the data on the "cloud".
The iCloud will probably be a huge success though.

Do you mean this one Image
Let us gather all the data in the world on a few servers of people who know better than us. They can control it, remove harmfull content. They can decide what is harmfull. And they know what is best for you. Steve has decided that you are not allowed to have nude people on his tablet (yes it is his, never mind that you paid for it. He knows best.)
Remember all people are equal..... only some are more equal than others...

Regardless of that, it is real convenient to have all your gadgets synced everywhere. So if you trust Steve to keep them for you I guess it is fine. Most people seem to trust him. It looks like he is bigger than Jesus these days (John Lennon?).

iCaramba !

Apple patented that one?

There is a good one for all the Social Networking people out there...

DARPA is developing a new algorithm/software that reads stuff out of the web and recognizes patterns to weed out terrorists. The other is a face recognition to look for missing children and the other is the legislation to make it a felony to have pirated copyrighted material.

Sooooooooooo.....

The law enforcement can ram in your house with the excuse of probable cause of having illegal MP3s or AVIs or the simple excuse of your talking smack about the Gov and find you by just your face.

Big Bro is watching!

Wow this is totally igay i mean you cant have sensitive things on your gadget? Ok thats fine but if the goverment really wants to control content on the web how about they start removing and cleaning up the web? If not apple should leave it alone cause people being people are going to do what they want regardless of who they are . Granted the internet is big but aperantly big brother is bigger they can find a pimple on your behind with a satilite but when it comes to the internet its to big? They can track your ip address and find out everything about you right? so they can do it to web sites too IMO. But otherwise icloud sounds cool .
