Re: <nettime> Should mobile phone data be used to monitor public


."the future security measures that people are not allowed to be without
a mobile phone, especially when they move around in public"...

see McLuhan about the law of reversal:

“during the stages of their development all things appear under forms
opposite to those that they finally present.”


the function of a mobile phone is not to enable us to call someone, but to
be called and - even more - recalled

best,
