This idiot is doing a disservice to JA.
He was clearly not being literal. In fact JA extrapolated further his metaphor.
JA said, in reference to small circuits powered by GSM waves used by the IC:
"The Internet of Things is like intelligent evil dust scattered everywhere, like confetti, in everything"
JA then goes on to state that this basically makes security impossible.
In this world where the paint on your wall can contain a circuit listening in on you, you cannot effectively remove yourself from security threats, whether your powerful or skilled.
His solution is to try to convince the most powerful people capable of enacting global change that this direction in technology will harm them as well.
Ensure that they realize that it's a threat to them.
A threat to their control.
Ultimately the gist is this:
Everything you say or do, and maybe even feel, is harvestable data.
That data is collected. All of it.
For all of us. Everyone.
The miniaturized technology JA referenced, which is powered by GSM waves, enables this.
"Intelligent evil dust"
The data is mediated by AI arbiters.
Who controls the arbiters?
The powerful.
JA is trying to stave off the threat of the few owning everyone's information.
Everything that makes you and I unique from one another will be the plaything of the powerful.
What is the alternative?
Q is power to the people. The counter force to hierarchical control over ALL of our data.
Where we go one we go all.
We will live in a world where everything that makes us sovereign is just data.
It will be the destruction of individuality, and the sovereign self.
This is the fundamental underpinning of the past 10,000 years of history.
Being able to think for yourself, speak for yourself, and communicate with others to come to a consensus.
That is…was…mankinds superpower.
And they will have control.
Or will they?
