  1. Being able to noclip would be better. Unless you were very high up in a skyscraper.

  2. Well yeah, we all know that's going to happen eventually but Joe was talking about in the next 5 to 10 years. Eventually we'll probably be covered in sockets for installing augments and other hardware.

  3. Or a law that allows people to opt out of public recording. If the device recognises your face from an online blacklist then you are pixelated whenever that device is recording near you. There would be some issues to work out such as what to do if the person is a criminal (either known criminals aren't protected by the law, or the device still records your face but not for the user or anyone else to see - only the authorities) It would be like that episode of Black Mirror that allowed people to literally block other people from their sight, but confined to cameras and without the evil intentions.

  5. Yeah, the episode with Bryce Dallas Howard came to mind when Joe mentioned everyone putting on a fake persona.

  6. You would just hold something in front of it and say "display today's itinerary", it's not rocket science. They showed you in the video how it displays things.
