Great campaign begins anti-Glass

Here we talk about many things in the world of technology: phones, computers and laptops, tablets, developments, inventions, robotics and more. Being a person anti-technology is something rarely seen in the world today, but even those who like a lot of it, sometimes they can also learn to reject it. This is what happened in the case of Google Glass. We discussed a few days ago a little about the first steps of the anti-Glass, and today we have a little report.

Last week launched a website called "Stop The Cyborgs" whose creator or associates are not known. The issue is that the idea of it is to deal with the glasses Glass and possible loss of privacy that they might bring. The idea behind the site is to "respond to the project and other technology trends Glass" to "prevent a future where there is no privacy and corporate control is total."

The truth is that the site is fairly solid arguments in favor, especially as regards the Glass, since in a few seconds a person can take a photo without us noticing and hang it on the Internet.

What do you think about this? Do the Glass represent a real threat to our privacy?

Netflix will offer 4K content in one or two years

How about up your download speed? Currently Netflix offers high quality content that forces you to have a decent connection if you want to enjoy a continuous video streaming without interruption. Well, within a couple of years you'll need a better connection if you want to see your favorite series in 4K resolution. Obviously to enjoy such quality you must have (along with a high download speed) a 4K TV, which currently are the most expensive on the market. I hope that when the new service is launched in a year or two perhaps, the price of televisions has dropped a bit 4K.
Currently the best quality services are the Super Netflix HD and 3D, requiring approximately 5Mbps connection to download either. If you want to enjoy the full 4K streaming once it is available, then you need a 35Mbps, as estimated.
Clearly this new service is not intended for all and only those who have a great TV and a good connection can use it.
