A article some may want to read - Contextual Intelligence: Smart Phones To Become Big Brother? - Personal-tech - Smart Phones - BYTE

"The government could use such information to identify depressed troops, and companies could use it to determine if employees are unhappy. Instead of losing those restless employees to competitors, companies could predict their mood and take preventive action.

"I do indeed believe this is something we want," said Gross. "Ultimately, I think we all aspire to a similar virtue: to live our life to its fullest, and to spend our time in the best way possible. It's technology's purpose to unlock that kind of experience for all of us."

Smart phones are too smart! It's scary!
