Some speculate that Moore was referring to natural resources when he said “The nature of exponentials is that you push them out, and eventually disaster happens.” in a 2005 interview with Techworld magazine. When I consider the "disaster" I see it applying to the availability of personal #privacy and #sovereignty. Instead of these being default in the application of this exponential growth of computational power, it has been intentionally weaponized against us. Personal privacy and sovereignty will never be default, it requires deliberate effort, time, attention and dare I say sacrifice.

Moore’s Law helps explain the exponential growth we’ve witnessed in computational power due to increasing density and falling costs, over the last 50 years.
