I'm angry at my absentmindedness. It's nobody's fault but mine, but I'm sure anyone with kids and stuff in both hands can relate to the dangers of near total distraction.
I was just figuring out how to get a loss claim started when there was a knock on the door. A kindly Indian gentleman returned my phone and said I'd left it on the bench. I didn't get into the why's and wherefores of it being turned off (the phone warned an unauthorized reset had been attempted) but I'm glad I got it back. I assumed it was a goner.
Making note of this error before, I went again today to play with one of the cars with the boys. And I did exactly the same fucking thing again.
This time it wasn't there when I returned.
I realized my mistake the moment I got through the door, and ran straight back. It was where I left it.
#virtualpanopticon expanded, a more accurate implementation of Bentham's panoptic philosophy. This is not a good thing. Privacy is a human right. Your neighbourhood doesn't need or really want to share that level of information, matter of time before a breech happens.
