Connecting the Dots
The way we leave fingerprints and footprints is only part of what is new. We
have always left a trail of information behind us, in our tax records, hotel
reservations, and long distance telephone bills. True, the footprints are far
clearer and more complete today than ever before. But something else has
changed—the harnessing of computing power to correlate data, to connect the
dots, to put pieces together, and to create cohesive, detailed pictures from
what would otherwise have been meaningless fragments. The digital explosion does not just blow things apart. Like the explosion at the core of an
atomic bomb, it blows things together as well. Gather up the details, connect
the dots, assemble the parts of the puzzle, and a clear picture will emerge.
.....
We give away information about ourselves—voluntarily leave visible footprints of our daily lives—because we judge, perhaps without thinking about it
very much, that the benefits outweigh the costs. To be sure, the benefits are
many. (stop here)
