Originally posted in that articleSee, this is what I figured. Not only that, if camera makers DO adopt this and governments require it, it still won't work because people who want pictures will just use older cameras; they're not exactly easily distinguishable. |

| I use a film camera (35mm, but only because I'm starting out and can't afford a medium/large format film camera), and I think a lot of magazine photographers still do as well for the image quality. Of course, most paparazzi magazines are cheaply made and the image quality doesn't matter that much, so they probably use digital like the newspapers do these days. Nevertheless, film will still be around for a long time. The real concern here is mostly voyeurism with cell phones and the like. People update their cell phones eventually (know anyone with old cell phones? People change services a lot and old phones get, well, old), so it might be feasible in that area. You'll just have a black market for cell phone hacks that remove the limits though. |

I love modern technology. Phones aren't phones anymore, they're fully equipped personal servers. You can keep all your personal preferences for the game of life on them, it's reality's options menu  |

| I can't wait until they invent all-encompassing PDA-phones that are neat and stylish and can hold objects in some sort of other-dimensional space, so I don't have to use a bag when I need to carry a lot of books and stuff. | |||

When phones start to make other information available on the wireless local network, you can expect all sorts of services cropping up. In effect, this is exactly what a server provides. With this technology, you can effectively opt not to appear in any photos. Seriously, this is the sort of preferences that we're used to seeing online and in games. This is the first instance of technology that we're familiar with on the 'net blending with reality. |

| Wow. Of all things to see the end of in my lifetime, Paparazzism was not one of them. Really. With any luck, maybe this will be a step towards a few less media whores. Maybe... |

| Pfft, people will just come up with ways to turn it off. Am I the only one who's sick of phones that make breakfast and walk the dog? I mean when I buy a phone, I want a phone, not a PDA. If I wanted a PDA, I would buy *gasp* a PDA! |

Kasumi: Next step is the Matrix.  I guess it would just cost too much implenting this into cameras, and just not worth it. Besides it's kinda like censoring eh? :/ Besides, what if it could see the diffrence between a fully naked body and a clothed one? Tha would effectivly clean the porn industry. As intresting it is, I don't think it will break through. At least not in the next few years...  |
