Gray Scott, Futurist: “When it comes to privacy and accountability, people always demand the former for themselves and the latter for everyone else.” (David Brin)

Kent Sanders, TCS: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” (Albert Einstein)

David Jonker, SAP: “In the span of less than a century, we have lost any vestige of the unlocked-front-door privacy mythically enjoyed by our grandparents, with more loss to come.” (Stewart Wolpin, Huffington Post – May 11, 2016)
