Welcome To Future
Theories of technology often attempt to predict the future of technology based on the high technology and science of the time. As with all predictions of the future, however, technology's is uncertain.
Futurist Ray Kurzweil predicts that the future of technology will be mainly consist of an overlapping "GNR Revolution" of Genetics, Nanotechnology, and Robotics, with robotics being the most important of the three.

How Much Money Facebook Gets From Selling Your Data
Mark Zuckerberg is making bank on your information. Jun 19, 2018
While Facebook’s spokespeople did not reply to our inquiries, we will offer one clarification in their defense: They do not “sell off” data, technically. They sell a service to advertisers. Looking to peddle your hemp-rope macramé vests? Facebook will happily take your money and use algorithms to serve your ads to a carefully curated subset of its users. Those with no taste perhaps. Or no arms.
As for the “worth” of your data, to derive a (very) crude estimate, one could take Facebook’s 2018 first-quarter revenue ($11.97 billion), divide by the number of active users (1.45 billion), and come up with about $8.25 per quarter, or $33 a year. But that’s not necessarily a useful calculation. In fact, it would be well nigh impossible for anyone outside the company to figure out exactly how much an individual’s data was worth, and it might be difficult even for Maestro Zuckerberg himself. That’s because users are not parceled out individually, but rather as constituents of large populations—tuba players, or owners of diabetic cats. Note, too, that not everyone’s info is equally valuable. This, of course, is no reflection on you as a person—we’re sure you’re the pride of your monastic yoga retreat—but merely accounts for the reality that some people are juicier marketing targets than others.
Are you a humble subsistence farmer who fashions his own footwear and ventures beyond his native village only to barter handicrafts for cloudy moonshine and used bicycle parts? Yeah, you’re worth, um—let’s just do the math here . . . approximately nothing. Thanks for playing.
On the other hand, suppose you’re a pipe-smoking MBA student living on a refurbished tugboat with a vintage necktie collection, assorted parrots, and enough credit cards to deal a full hand of no-limit Omaha. Then we’re getting somewhere.
“If you’re educated or wealthy, people will pay more for you,” says Rahul Telang, a faculty member at Carnegie Mellon’s CyLab Security & Privacy Institute. “If there are certain life changes going on, like you’re buying a house, or getting married, or getting divorced, or if you’re sick, all of that probably leads to more money being given to target us.”
“IF YOU’RE EDUCATED OR WEALTHY, PEOPLE WILL PAY MORE FOR YOU”
Matt Hogan, cofounder of the startup Datacoup, which pays people directly for their data (a commendable approach, we’d say, though a little like paying people to donate their kidneys), says companies traffic more than social details. “Financial data is extremely powerful for forecasting,” he says. “Future consumption, propensity to make payments or go delinquent, all that kind of stuff.”
Indeed, as data collection gets increasingly personal, the effect on your life may become far more dramatic than toaster ads that chase you around the internet. Pam Dixon, executive director of the World Privacy Forum, says that a profile of your data could be purchased by a healthcare plan and used to determine your premiums. Or, if you were applying to a private college, they might buy your data to find out if you can afford tuition before deciding to admit you.
Facebook Was Never Really For You
As surely as time passes or clouds float through the sky, Facebook is embroiled in self-manufactured scandal. Less than a week after the social network disclosed a bug that made millions of user photos accessible to third-party developers, the New York Times published a bombshell report outlining more of the alarming ways Facebook abused trust to shovel user data to advertisers and corporate partners. Bubbling up from the revelations that are so routine as to become boring is that increasingly unavoidable fact: Facebook isn't for you. It's not a vehicle for fostering human connection and building bridges of cross-cultural understanding, as its original mission statement declared. Facebook is a business, and one that is fueled by data, often provided unwittingly and on an industrial scale by users and even non-users who happen to be in its orbit. The Times story, drawn from 60 interviews and internal company documents, illustrates how Facebook gave over presumably private data to corporate partners. Spotify and Netflix were able to see the contents of user's private messages, while Bing was able to detect "the names of virtually all Facebook users’ friends without consent," the report states. "Without consent" is a recurring theme for Facebook in a year marred by data breaches, political propaganda deployed by foreign trolls, and a public caught somewhere between helplessness and well-justified outrage.
