    The little 4 wheeled boxes are very close to where I live in Venice. A security guard on Lincoln blvd. thinks they work for ICE because they’re painted green and white. I saw one run a red light yesterday. They frequently get stuck because a curb hasn’t been cut for handicapped use. Sometimes they actually fall over off the side of a curb. Once I picked one up and helped it get back on it’s way.

    Education essentially requires the student helped to adjust to knowledge, and not knowledge becoming like the ignorants’ starting position, like a pizza delivery of superficial choice. These two are talking about new niche money-making schemes, not education.

    Cameras which spy on everyday life. Intrusive, violating, forced on us without choice. Use of public space for personal profit. Complicating of spaces. Toxic use of environmental resources. Building passive tolerance for questionable technology advances and uses. “Totally philanthropic”! What a joke. Two entitled men discussing how they can boost their ideologies and influence in the world.
