If you want to plan a revolution, you never do it in public - the authorities show up and arrest everyone.

The bigger the network, the harder it is to leave. Many users find it too daunting to start afresh on a new site, so they quietly consent to Facebook's privacy bullying.

You know, anyone who wears glasses, in one sense or another, is a cyborg.

The goal of privacy is not to protect some stable self from erosion but to create boundaries where this self can emerge, mutate, and stabilize.

I worry that as the problem-solving power of our technologies increases, our ability to distinguish between important and trivial or even non-existent problems diminishes.

As smart technologies become more intrusive, they risk undermining our autonomy by suppressing behaviors that someone somewhere has deemed undesirable.

Information technology has been one of the leading drivers of globalization, and it may also become one of its major victims.

As economic life relies more and more on the Internet, the potential for small bands of hackers to launch devastating attacks on the world economy is growing.

For much of its existence, design was all about convenience. We wanted to hide technology so that users are not distracted into thinking about the tools they use.

Information wants to eat brie.

Be conscious of God and speak always the truth.

My Greek mythology is not strong enough.

I really do love pop. I understand songwriting, I understand the business, and I'm not stuck in any one particular time period.

I think, some countries, you have to be dead to have your picture on a stamp.

I wake up every morning singing The Star-Spangled Banner.
