Aadhar card or Unique Identity(UID) card

Originally Identification card was mandatory for NREGA(rural unemployment scheme) and PDS(Public Distribution System). Because leakages were found and the poor people could not get unemployment benefits or grains by distribution system..All citizens of India were forced to open bank accounts and the requisite was the Aadhar card which took the citizens iris patterns and finger prints. The reason given was that subsidies will be given to poor people for cooking gas and essential food grains when you show your Aadhar card. Then citizens were told to give these cards to open accounts. After that all had to give Aadhar card for bank accounts and   money transfers. Without supreme court orders citizens were forced to give details. Now Supreme court has said if you have given your personal data(iris pattern and fingerprints) you should have as it was not mandatory. Now already everyone has given their data and one cannot take it back. So your identity is captured  for ever and you cannot come out of it.
Its worse than Facebook or smartphone, this is the ultimate misuse of collecting individual's personal data. Around the world, only the criminal's fingerprints or iris data is collected. But not in India

Eye from sky-smart phones

SMARTPHONE.We all have it because it is a necessity. It is convenient, but it is taking away our privacy and freedom. All the connections you have are used by smartphone devices to sell you goods or services, every second. Consumerism is enforced on the people. Collection of data about our consumer activities are used to give us more choices of more consumer products. We are being sucked by quicksand. So people take control of yourself ......that is your mind.

Celebration of Facebook and dejection of facebook

Facebook was connecting everyone to everyone. But it influenced US presidential election and the Brexit referendum of UK. As quiz data from facebook was used to create profile traits and show the users those  features which would influence their minds. Its mind boggling. How we are being influenced. Facebook CEO blames it on the firm Cambridge Analytica which processed all this after taking permission from Facebook. Can they do this, where is the line of division between what we "can think on our own" to"what we are made to think"
Its computer age and when we give our data away to facebook we have given our mind away too. These are challenges to democracy. Can there be democracy with this kind of influences
