It’s a very attractive online movie and I do appreciate the way that Annie had taken to express herself. I would like to recommend it to my friends.
First of all, I believe that Annie should be respected, not only she is an environmentalist and a proponent of sustainability. As an American, she had spent 20 years and traveled to 40 countries, concerning about all people’s living conditions and the destiny of the earth, even though she was always misunderstood and criticized.
I agree on the points presented in the video, but in my opinion it is not realistic. What a great pity it is! On the one hand the government’s main purpose is not “for the people take care the people”, the government just wants to grasp the political power and defeats the other communities, unfortunately its all depend on tax revenue. In fact government and corporations, there are numerous internal relations between them, they rack their minds to make people working hard, consuming and then obtain maximum profits.
One the other hand, the development of different countries and regions are still in extreme imbalance, and this could not be changed in short term. If a country is experiencing famine, how can the government give up trashing development for climate change?
Anyway, as far as I am concerned, I would like to change some details in my daily life for our finite resource like water, paper, and electricity conservation.

How to Deal with the Privacy Invasion
Through Snooping Bosses we learned: GPS technology, Xora and Surf control software, video surveillance all of them are the secret snitches, not only what you do at work, but also your spare time activities could be monitored by employers. Employees look like be completely controlled. Even though mobile phone, blogger and face book are also not secure, maybe our personal information have been compromised unwittingly, that even lead to a serious consequences. People are father and father away from individual privacy, it cause a tendency of panic and anxiety in contemporary society.
Facing various high technologies, how could we deal with the privacy invasion? Maybe the security industry will develop rapidly since the high demands. Then we can imagine that the employees will use more advanced software to fight against the employers monitor. As a result, there is only a feeling of suspicion and distrust among people; I believe that is the really creepy word!
How to protect our privacy and build up a homogeneous society? In my opinion, on the one hand we should consummate our laws and relative regulations constantly, especially for new technology, establish clearly definitions and boundary conditions as soon as possible. For example, one kind of software could just be used in a certain field and definite period as a surveillance instrument, otherwise it is illegal. On the other hand, as employees we should advocate professional ethics and honesty virtue.
