The Problem of Virtualization. My understanding of what Virtualization of the networks is that all computers and Servers involved in a network become shared in such a way that there is not longer any real separation between one server and another or one computer and another in the way work is done over the network of computers and servers.
In some ways this is already happening for example when your computer or server is updated often without you knowing anything about it as long as your computer is on and connected either by wire or wireless-ly to the internet.
By having more or less a clear definition of my computer and his computer and that server that serves users all these websites, then if a virus, cookie or anything else infects one computer, server or whatever it doesn't necessarily infect any other server or computer. However, with virtualization it is sort of like if it were people instead of computers, it would be like I wouldn't necessarily know which hand, eye, brain, idea, foot, sexual organ etc. was mine and which was somebody elses. You may not have a problem with that but I see a basic confusion coming in the actual existence and functioning of such a thing.
I also have always had concerns about the whole way that computers have fundamentally been built and designed and then the software has been designed. Hasn't it occured to anyone else that the Roswell and other crafts that were the basis of not only early transistors as well as the basis reverse engineered of so many computers today that in a sense that the Roswell craft could have been a technological Trojan horse?
Maybe the end result of this particular type of technology we have developed doesn't keep humans being able to take care of themselves or moves us toward becoming some sort of Borg like race like out of Star Trek the next generation.
I like the idea of indvidual computers served by individual servers. The more homogenized computers and servers get the more I feel that individual humans will be made more vulnerable and will pay a dear price for it individually and collectively, mostly because we won't know the consequences until they happen because on this level NO ONE IS MINDING THE STORE!
PS January 29th the problem at the french bank by the misguided trader trying to make a name for himself as a trader is just one of the thousands of potential future problems that will only be aggravated and made worse by Virtualization of the Networks!
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
