There are millions of people around the globe who are deathly afraid that "Big Brother" -- super-government capable of tracking our every move and controlling our thoughts and opinions - is slyly coming to the forefront.
Others - including the governments - are concerned that our privacy is being horribly violated.
At the same time, most of these people want to have assistance to shop online or find a store with just the product they want at the cheapest possible cost, ensure their mobile calls and text messages go through clearly, flawlessly.
Yes, you want privacy; but you also want instant service, support, help...preferably before you know you need it.
And you want it for free.
It's tough to have it both ways.
Actually, real folks - the estimated 240M Internet users and 4B mobile device users - aren't concerned about maintaining their privacy but are concerned that their private information won't be shared...too much.
