    The symmetry at the Los Angeles Coliseum was perfect. Notre Dame had started the season unranked and slowly climbed, never losing on the way to reaching No. 1 just days earlier. Southern California had started out No. 1 and tumbled from the top 25 one loss at a time.

  • Actually, the text above is not exactly analogous to the terms on which we bargain with every mouse click. To really polish the analogy, I'd have to ask this magazine to hide that text in the margin of one of the back pages. And I'd have to end it with This agreement is subject to change at any time. What we agree to participate in on the Internet isn't a negotiated trade; it's a smorgasbord, and intimate facts of your life (your location, your interests, your friends) are the buffet.
  • By reading this agreement, you give Technology Review and its partners the unlimited right to intercept and examine your reading choices from this day forward, to sell the insights gleaned thereby, and to retain that information in perpetuity and supply it without limitation to any third party.
  • Facebook then responds to the inevitable public outcry by restoring something that's like the old system, except slightly less private.
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • pricing out the net present value of a decision whose consequences are far in the future.
  • No one would take up smoking if the tumors sprouted with the first puff.
  • "intermittent reinforcement."
  • Give a lab rat a lever that produces a food pellet on demand and he'll only press it when he's hungry. Give him a lever that produces food pellets at random intervals, and he'll keep pressing it forever.
  • Lawrence Lessig pointed out in his book Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace, there are four possible mechanisms:
  • norms, law, code, and markets.
  • If there's one thing the last 15 years of Internet policy fights have taught us, it's that nothing is ever solved by ascribing propertylike rights to easily copied information.
  • Right now, there are two ways to browse the Web: turn cookies off altogether and live with the fact that many sites won't work; or turn on all cookies and accept the wholesale extraction of your Internet use habits.
  • There's a business opportunity for a company that wants to supply arms to the rebels instead of the empire
  • Behavioral scientists have a name for this dynamic: “intermittent reinforcement.” It’s one of the most powerful behavioral training techniques we know about. Give a lab rat a lever that produces a food pellet on demand and he’ll only press it when he’s hungry. Give him a lever that produces food pellets at random intervals, and he’ll keep pressing it forever.
  • But the truth is that dialing down Internet tracking won’t be the end of advertising. Ultimately, it could be a welcome change for those in the analytics and advertising business. Once the privacy bargain takes place without coercion, good companies will be able to build services that get more data from their users than bad companies. Right now, it seems as if everyone gets to slurp data out of your computer, regardless of whether the service is superior.
  • What if mobile OSes were designed to let their users instruct them to lie to apps? “Whenever the Connect the Dots app wants to know where I am, make something up. When it wants my phone number, give it a random one.”
  • Far from destroying business, letting users control disclosure would create value.
  • There’s a business opportunity for a company that wants to supply arms to the rebels instead of the empire.
