Ubiquitous computing environments will definitely change the way we go about our daily activities, as they will, more than ever before, facilitate our actions to be sensed, communicated, stored and searched electronically. The scale of the change should make every one of us care about the security and privacy problems created by these environments. Ignoring these problems would otherwise turn ubiquitous computing environment into an Orwellian society, where the norm is what Prof. Ron Rivest from MIT called the "reversal of default", where "What was once private is now public", and "what was once easily forgotten, is now stored forever".

无处不在的计算环境肯定会改变我们日常活动的方式，因为它们将比以往任何时候都更方便我们的行为被电子化地感知、交流、存储和搜索。变化的规模应该让我们每个人都关心这些环境所带来的安全和隐私问题。忽视这些问题，将使无处不在的计算环境变成一个奥威尔式的社会，在那里，规范是麻省理工学院的罗恩·里维斯特教授所说的“默认逆转”，“曾经私有的现在是公共的”，“曾经容易忘记的，现在永远存储”。
