Interesting, but ultimately evil. We will only be free when we learn self control. This is a crutch for the crippled, it bypasses the virtue of self-discipline and we would end up having to utilise these mechanisms all the time as we moved away from the time when it was necessary to do it for ourselves. We would be enslaved to the cloud by this, not freed from it.

once, we had this very expensive coffee-machine and the matching coffee. after one year, we realised, we'll be doomed when we use this any longer because we had 5 cups each a day. so the only thing from saving us, was to sell the machine and switch to something decent.
self control is not given to anyone. can we really leanr this, and then, how works it?
- Self control is not bestowed, but its there for anyone who has the strength of character to exercise it.Orbit

the german wikipedia article about virtues may be a helpful reading:

i just wasted time reading this thread. think of all the things i could have done. for a minute i thought you were going to do my job for me.
what happens if you're coding or designing or indeed anything and you need something online, script help, an image, a dictionary definition, hard core pornography, the reboot would waste time.
in saying that, i'm sometimes way more productive when the internet goes. too short, i go drink coffee, too long i go mad.
oh god, now i've wasted time replying to the thread.
damn you pascii.
