of the “Don't be Evil” and “Don't pay Tax”, Corporation Google • They work on Moonshot projects • Far removed from their core business • Modern day lab hoping for technological breakthroughs, similar to: Bletchley Park, PARC, Bell Labs or the Manhattan Project
to selected Developers, who paid circa £985 for them • Speculation that the Explorer programme maybe expanded autumn 2013 • Public release before Christmas 2013
Google App Engine (not sure how to host Glassware on your server yet!) • App Engine is Google’s Cloud infrastructure • Uses the same technology that powers Google’s services. (Big Table, their data storage system that is not released outside of Google, used by services like Youtube, Google Earth, Gmail etc) • It is PaaS, you don’t have machine instances or servers to manage, you host an app written in a supported language • Can server your app at your own domain name or use a free domain <app-name>.appspot.com • 10 free apps with 1GB of storage and enough CPU and bandwidth to support up to 5m page hits a month per app, with a free account Register an account here: https://developers.google.com/appengine/ Admin Console: https://appengine.google.com/ Manage your App APIs: https://code.google.com/apis/console/
Go and PHP • It is supposed to remove the sys admin burden and offer highly scalable infrastructure • Use the SDK to build apps locally and push them to production • Or you can build through the web with a web based IDE DevTable Web IDE: https://devtable.com
• Read only access to the file system • Restricted Python, full library but you can’t use C modules • Cost increases as you scale, you need good caching strategy • CPU intensive tasks are expensive • Application code size is restricted • They tend to close projects that don't generate money!
• Uses the Google Mirror API, which is a set of RESTful services • The UI is a timeline, which is a series of cards you swipe through • Default cards are pinned, which display things like the current time
virtually all aspects of the social life of a country including economy, education, art, science, private life, morals and thoughts of its citizens • The tiptoe was coined by former BBC sports presenter, David Icke, turned super conspiracy theorist who believes we are ruled by a lizard elite!! • Whilst some of his theories seem far fetched, the tiptoe analogy rings true • The tiptoe is the small incremental steps that a Government takes as they swing from a free open society towards a paranoid power hungry surveillance state, pushing for total control of the citizens through fear and propaganda • If they make a leap from one to the other, then it is very obvious to the population. But small incremental steps gentle pull the populace with them
how long? • No transparency about what is being retained. It is done in secret • We do not have full control over the device and what it collects on us, so we can't trust people who wear them • Your data can be used to commercial exploit you • Continuous surveillance • No longer amassing what information we type into websites and apps, but retaining what we see, hear and experience from a human perspective • Your Video and Audio is retained and potentially scanned with facial recognition technology • We don't know what they are collecting, what for and who's hands it will fall into • Where do we draw the lines: Places of work, gyms, driving, saunas? • Guilt through association • If enough data is pieced together a portrait can be painted and you may have to spend time defending a case built against you • Witness the media jumping to wrong conclusion as a major story breaks • Blacklisted for attending a particular protest, conference or event, as you are recognised using facial recognition • Stalked or bullied through facial recognition
