"No one has a problem with strangers seing you on the street, but suddenly when some guy follows you around with a camera it's a problem?"

looking -> recording -> sharing

These are all different things and our behaviour will and should change at each step.

Relying on vague memories for such broad judgements. Seems like a sound philosophy to me ;)

I'm not sure what the actual consequences of basic income would be, but at least this article references attempts at figuring out how such systems affect people. You're not bringing up any objections that aren't mentioned in the article.

And pointing to existing forms of welfare/social security misses the point entirely. Many who speak for basic income (including this article's author) argue that it's the heavy bureaucracy and stigma associated with such sollutions that cause people to be caught up in it.

Zeno's little known memory paradox?

Pretty cool. A shame it shares a name with this, though: http://dronestagram.tumblr.com (Which, imo, is a more interesting, but completely different idea)
