Where am I?

Hi People!

Somebody who knows me may wonder where I am now.

The answer is... Everywhere! :-)

Yes, thanks to the Internet our physical presence doesn't matter anymore...

Wait, wait!!

I am joking! It does matter!!! And someone may also understand why! :-)

However, we are living a "metaphysical" life thanks to Internet. A life that extends beyond distance, time and biological life...

This is a new era and we should be aware of it... but also be very careful! It is true that we cannot live this new life as it was our real life. Also, we must not dissumulate our real life in the virtual one. We still have an Identity! We are human beings with a human mind!

Our virtual Ego must be consistent with our personality. Otherwise we risk to to live a double life and confuse the real with the virtual.

I don't mean that the virtual world is not real. It is! That's why we cannot fool our virtual friends (and even partners) by being another person in the virtual world.

We need to take responsibility and be ready to keep our real identity as our virtual identity.

I propose that each newborn be assigned with a unique internet ID. Something like the MAC address for internet devices. Internet crime would be easier to detect.

However, the identity could be stolen and misused.

There are problems to solve. New problems and new issues!

Thank you for reading!

Vincenzo
