Watching Me, Watching You
Nanotechnology will enable easy, ubiquitous and convenient sensor, surveillance and tracking technologies to be employed by almost anyone. Its applications range from keeping track of grandpa on his more befuddled days to tracking teen buying behavior to the identification and background retrieval of potential terrorists as they enter an airport or visit a "critical" part of a major city. With such technologies cheap and available to anyone, the key question is who gets tracked? Who has the right and the authority to engage in such activities? Do we have the right to be informed if we're being watched? And who has access to the information?
