And, it will be sold to governments around the world... covertly, of course. Everybody will be watching everybody else. And they will be watching themselves, of course.

The CIA will be watching the FBI. The FBI will be watching the Secret Service. The Secret Service will be watching the President... in his bed chambers... better than they do now.

The old James Bond has been gone a long time. The new JB will be entirely outclassed. The stuff of movies like "Red" and "Salt" will become has-beens.

There will be so much info that the best computers won't be able to handle it all. Government jobs will open up around the world, just to get enough people to scan all the gathered info... just to make some sense out of all of it.

Finally, a practical quantum computer will come online. It will have artificial intelligence. It will be able to make sense of all the data gathered... all of it at the same time. Governments will turn authority over to it. It will rule the world.

I sure hope someone programmed some GOOD into it.
 

I am bolstered by the proven record that what one man makes another man can break, and yet another can fool.
