50 Cent Says Technology Will “Take Away Privacy Completely”

    50 Cent recently addressed the role that technology plays in the lives of people. In the interview, 50 Cent also spoke about how Instagram and other forms of social networking are set to impact lives in different ways. 

    “I think technology is gonna take away privacy completely,” 50 Cent says in the interview with The Verge. “Your Google [Glass], the guy who just wants a photo for his social networking, takes a picture of you at the urinal because he tells the glasses to take the picture…You’ll see it on his Instagram later. So everything will be out. I think it’s important to try to stay as close to as many people as possible, as far as your fan-base is concerned. I use my social networking to entertain them. It’s not me showing you what I had to eat. People use it completely differently. They show you their lifestyle. But if you look at mine, my Instagram may even look like it’s a fake one because it’s things that I put up, not photos of me.”

    In November 2013, Young Guru was featured in a video by Google Glass to showcase the features of the product. That video can be found below, followed by a tutorial on how to take photographs and videos with Google Glass.

    Recently, 50 Cent also spoke about his SMS Audio’s collaborations with Star Wars and Carmelo Anthony.

    “It’s exciting to have the collaborations cause these guys have a strong passion for music,” 50 Cent said in a recent interview with Fox. “Carmelo, most professional athletes have a passion for it cause it’s a lot of physical discipline involved and we can take it down to the basics. The way we would actually utilize it on the treadmill or just keeping ourselves healthy.”

    In the interview with The Verge, 50 Cent also discusses his perspective on curved televisions, Minecraft and self-driving automobiles. More from the interview can be viewed below.

    1. This gorilla must pay HipHopDX because he is irrelevant in rap but gets an article on here every day, and the shit is almost never about HipHop.

      1. He’s irrelevant but he stays in the news and you click on all the stories to hate?? Hmm… Sounds relevant to me!

    2. way they act like if i where to talk to them they pretend to be stupid an talk like little girls and wtch 99 subjects every tec sec

      1. The guy that ordered the hit is still alive and the one responsible for the death of the shooter. We respect the shooters not the victims.

      2. Nigga you a computer thug. “Talking about we respect the shooter” The shooter is dead and you typing gangsta shit on computers. In person you are most likely a sucka. You hoe ass nigga!

      3. “We respect the shooters, not the victims”. If you motherfuckers are older than 16, you should be ashamed of how dumb and immature you are. Idolizing these fuckin’ guys like they’re heroes. Groupies.

      4. Nobody idolizes 50 Cent except for blonde haired children in the suburbs, he is a clown which is why no rapper with any type of street credibility wants to do music with him.

      5. Im actually not 40 and the only person from MMg I like is Stalley so Im not the dude that hurt your feelings in the past groupie.

      1. Supreme had him killed because he botched the mission and allowed 50 Cent to survive, HipHop would have been better off without that bitter pig ruining New York rap.

      2. He didnt totally ruin NY HipHop he just spent his reign on top trying to destroy all the other NY artists instead of uniting with them to make a solid NY movement. All that negative energy crippled any momentum that NY had and the South wasted no time in taking over. it didnt help that the best members in G Unit were Game and Buck who were from the South and West Coast but then again 50 was signed to a Midwest dude and a West Coast dude so maybe he just wasnt built to big up NY.

      3. Who cares? It’s a good thing he didn’t do the dirty work..That’s why he’s got 260 million in the bank right now… Meanwhile, the other guy isn’t even around anymore.

    3. 50 is a washed up has been thag got his album pushed back by Doctor Dre, Gucci Mane has never got pushed back and he doesnt get shot he does the shooting.

    4. Tech will def make privacy impossible. But maybe that is a good thing. People try to hide their flaws in secrecy. But if we are all forced into the open, maybe people will become more accepting towards each other because EVERYTHING will be in the open.

      The transition will be difficult, but the outcome COULD be amazing.

    5. u lil dudes keep on hatin on 50 while the whole rap game has respect for this guy. ppl dont be fuckin with him cuz they know he real. but on the real new cats in the game got mad respect for fif.
