Marc Goodman: “Most folks don’t realize the extent to which the whole world is becoming a computer. All physical objects in our space are de-materializing and are being transformed into information technology. … If you look at a 1965 Chevy, or a Mustang, those were mechanical cars, but the cars today—any car that’s rolled off the assembly line in the past few years—has well over 200 microchips in it. They control the radio, the GPS, the airbags, the cruise control, the speedometer, it’s all controlled by computer. Recently on 60 Minutes … Leslie Stahl‘s car was hacked. Somebody was able to slam on the acceleration, slam on the brakes. … A [modern car] is a computer that we ride in, an elevator is a computer that we ride in, an airplane is a Solaris box that we fly in. All of these devices are hackable.”
