"future shock "
Granted, I write a blog on a social network, but the intellectual property problem of social networking is that social networking has turned emotions/likes/life stories/personal narrative into the ultimate fetish commodity. Soon, with the help of bit coins, silk roads, onion-ed security footprints and fingerprint i.d. shopping, we will be able to attach a value-based number to this isolated emotional currency; there will be links to bank accounts with incremental percentage points of monetary value paid out for every like/feeling/narrative/personal story/photo/and inadvertent advertisement via trends on social networks.
