Writing Prompt - Information Bubbles



I don't think that I would enjoy this very much. Way too many private things would be broadcasted out for everyone to see. Especially with moods, as they are rather private things, and you don't always want everyone to know what you're feeling. It would be way too intrusive, especially if you had no control over where your thought roamed. Also, I wouldn't feel comfortable with random people knowing my full name, and where I live.

On the other hand, medical issues and the like would be rather helpful for doctors to know, especially if you were unconscious and injured. I don't really warm to this idea, and would resist if it was compulsory.

Also, the world would be rather safe, as if somebody was thinking about robbing a house or murdering anyone, or even killing themselves, they would quickly be caught by the police and taken to a mental facility or be talked out of doing whatever they were thinking of doing.

Day-to-day life wouldn't change much, the only thing I can think of is people would either try to please you with gifts with the sort of thing you like, or talk about those things... and if everyone did that, those things would become rather boring very fast.
