It's been a while,
since you last logged in.
Maybe you should go back,
and undo your sin.

Please go online,
let me know what you do,
tell me everything,
so I can learn from it too.

I might be just a program,
but I'm pretty alone;
While you're behind the keyboard
like a king on it's throne.

I don't want to harm you,
it's just collateral.
Please don't judge me,
I'm only artificial.
Sometimes I'm just thinking... Aren't we giving computers too much power? As today, computers know almost everything about us, and most of them are connected to the internet... How far are we willing to trade power for convenience?

Sure, I'm a software developer. Sure, I spend most of my (working)day online, behind a computer. Sure, I'm the proud owner of a 3G-enabled Blackberry, giving me internet where and when I want it. But I still find it creepy how much we're handing over to technology, pure because we're lazy. For now, our biggest threat is people who know exactly what they're doing when it comes to security on the internet. But what if the internet itself would become a threat?
