While hearing about molecular computing and nano memory cards, one would wonder how the future would be. Definitely different. Here is a preview.
You return home and settle at home. Want to know how organic is the tomato you bought. Pick one of them and use your TV remote as a scanner. Immediately picks of the universal identification number of the tomato and starts pumping data after data about the tomato. The shop it is been purchased, the date it is been stocked, the vehicle it came in .. You could use the remote to drill down the pouring info. The farm of the tomato is show live. The fertilizers used in the past, the chemical composition, the Dept of Agriculture's stance with respect to that fertilizer, What not ..
It is amazing to know the interconnected and data relatedness we can end up in.
Thou this kind of info access is technically feasible, I guess the legality over personal space, business confidentiality etc will hide these info.
