careful who you talk to

It creates thousands of subprograms, called Nanniebots, which log on to different chat rooms and strike up conversations with users and user groups.

Wow, that sounds like a good idea, but it really does make me nervous about trying to pick up chicks in chatrooms.

Hopefully it will cut down on all this pedophile crap that has invaded the chatrooms.

hmmm.. so what happens next ? the governments.. say "hey, we could take that idea and monitor chat and IRC channels for subversive types" ? the start of something like that could be both bad and good.

Like they don't do that already.

Hey Hey,

It is some what disturbing, It's a little too big brother like. Between them reading my emails and now reading my chat conversations, what's next.. They want a VNC to my computer so that they can monitor my desktop? Maybe we should just put the entire world on one large domain and then them use's slarty's GenControl.

I'm all for getting rid of the pedo's and cutting down on the child abuse on the internet, but not at the limitation of my rights and freedoms. The software is a good idea, but like sdg who's to say they won't use this software to monitor other actions, and that joking around about something on the internet won't get me put in jail somewhere down the road.

That's just my 2 cents.

Peace,
HT

I don't see it as a big deal, I mean when you are publicly talking to someone you don't know, you should be aware that you could be posted, ect..
If I were to be running around groups of people yelling that I had a bomb, then I would have to take what comes with those actions: police ect.. Same thing online, its just sometimes harder to find them
