99.99% users of the mobile phone, do they know a thing about the phone?
00:08
Do they know?
00:09
Except for the user interface, what do they know of?
00:12
They have it in their palm as if it's something so ordinary, so cheap.
00:17
And economics of scale is indeed providing that wonder of technology to you at very cheap
00:23
rates.
00:24
You ask yourself, how long will you by yourself create that mobile phone?
00:30
Never.
00:31
That's the problem.
00:32
We have received almost for free something so precious.
00:36
If you are given freedom, you are bound to misuse it because it's like giving freedom
00:40
and power and authority to a drunken one.
00:44
Freedom should be first a thing of within and only then a thing in your hands.
00:51
Otherwise the results are catastrophic.
00:52
The earth is closer to destruction today than it ever was in its history.
00:56
More than 70% of internet traffic is for destructive or wasteful purposes.
