Holiday Design

Aloha poets,
     Shiny blue waterfall design in the cool tropical holiday season
inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!

Anonymize Enzyme

Privacy rises from the ashes of the well intended
To delete forever? leaves Einstein undefended
Is it a personal right to never have been said?
To be enforced by strange force long dead?

The original poster is the one who clicked
Commanded send with an ilk so slicked
Time conquers all even huge data base 
Therein lies forever, future human race

Regulators decide now for the consumer
Privacy veers away from the baby boomer
To leave data behind for the rest of the world
As universal parenting so cosmopolitan swirled

Appoint a nice watchdog to watch it sniff and bark
As if a piracy, your privacy slips off into the dark
Information now regretted? well that's too bad
Second thoughts once, a second chance had

Government punishment for things posted?
Flew out your window you thought ghosted
The world enjoys your little local contribution
Mainstream boys disperse in a wide distribution  

But now regretted? remember sharing is caring
Topic once fretted? now in the world blaring
Advertising lifestyle book in a data factory 
Your life storybook even with back story

Pet a watchdog, continue your convenience
Sharing personal information gets no lenience
Right to privacy is a banner, stutters and sways
Or right to free speech, can we have it both ways?

What about a search engine, so slick and so greased
Free and easy services so expanded and increased
Information collected, tracking you if they dare
Future earth standing in its cosmic underwear

Open ethos a watchword, watchdogs bark
Digital shines a light away from the dark
People as a target for products sublime    
Genetics wish for anonymize enzyme

  1. cool your blog, man! His ideas are very good. Living in peace with nature is the best alternative for the world. Although I live in the city of Sao Paulo, which has nothing similar to his home when I travel about 50 km away in search of a mountain, river or lake ...
    if I wrote something wrong, excuse my English. I'm not very good.
    até outro dia cara!
