Can someone explain what this can and can't do?
Our conversation started here

That's an awful lot of posts to try to comb through. So, if I speak out on Wal-Mart, does that mean that I am going to be nailed with Wal-Mart ads?

How would this be used politically?

"Unplugged" Agreed!
Put this together with facial recognition technology, and I can see the day where we walk through the subway station or grocery store and a marketing tv screen calls out our name with some advertisement as we walk by. Spooky.
I can see this being wrought with privacy issues. The interference into our private lives has already gone too far. Technology has gone too far. Pretty soon we won't even have to 'think' for ourselves...and sadly, a good portion of the populace will just eat that up.

I have now. I can't wait for the list of "The Impeachables" to grow!
Thanks Zen.
Plenty of em to place on the list that is for sure.
There sure is. The only difficulty then, being which one of 'the impeachables' to go first. I wonder...could we not just impeach the entire congress as a whole? You know, just to save us time. ~.^
As a peoples initiative/right to call for impeachment - I think the people should be able to present a list of those in office that need to go and have that list acted upon.
ART5 has that potential IF citizens consider constitutional intent something a US official must know. If we have had a national discussion and defined constitutional intent, then found fed leaders acting against it- IMPEACH!
What is the forum for such a national discussion of issues?
Is there a national forum.
Maybe Facebook?
Maybe Make a web page for it.
Gather opinions, share facts,
Here we try to have reach understanding, then disagree on methods for reaching those goals.
Make a Facebook page on waking up Americans.
This is the forum, but an infiltration has filled it with problems displacing solution. Either that or Americans cannot tell the difference.
The actual discussion probably won't happen unless ART5 happens with preparatory amendment, ending the abridging of free speech. Full info and the usenet to talk about it. A place where free speech is guaranteed.
Facebook has too many browser incompatibilities.
I believe this
http://www.cusdi.org/index.html would enhance speech.
But has same cognitive infiltration issues, and no money backers (speech)
National initiatives functionality would be enhanced by free speech that is certain. Democracy depends on opinion, which depends on information. With out free speech information does not flow or get properly questioned.
This concept of a forum software that maximizes a poll function looks like the sincere could plow the infiltrators right out of credibility.

I heard anon took it to a major software producer, anon was going to pay, and they refused saying, "this company is not going to be the company that puts the people in dominance over corporations." It suffers too from no backing from what I can tell.

Data mining through social hyperlinking... I've had similar questions myself. Windows 8 now encourages all to sign into a microsoft account which continuously monitors the state of our system while potentially exposing all private data; social media is now all hyperlinked; how long will it be before someone creates this intelligence in the form of a program capable of mining and analyzing all? What impact, that was the question. The flip side is that it largely ignores that demographic that continues to shop in Target and Walmart as those too busy to be bothered with the Net.
So, with all of that it's not going to be an accurate picture similar to surveys conducted online only or via phone calls?
The intent is to fine tune the machine; they'll determine what kind of porn we're watching, what kind of scenes, and fine tune right down to the color of the - well, floor tiles, for example. If they can do that they can maximize sales. But this is just my impression, I was hoping you might tell me the direction and where you suspect it will take us.
