If the focus of technology becomes making everything work on smartphones and in web applications, we will literally become an Idiocracy. They do this shit, people accept it and then we wonder why they can easily make anything important that we do with a computer lack privacy?
You're putting everything in a fucking web application or on a telco-controlled, consumer-grade device. AAAAAHHHHHHHHH WE ARE DOOMED GODDAMNIT.
I sometimes wonder if I'm just resisting an important trend, or if I'm terribly ignorant of some higher plane of thinking.
