Humble, TX | Data != Computers I have seen a lot of posts that seem to me that people don't quite understand the article. This is how much data, written or typed or spoken, that people generate. It is not how much data they have on their computers, or how much data they transfer. It is about how much information we input into the universe as a whole.
But anyways, it is a waste of money if you ask me...

Not entirely... By estimating the amount of data we as a society (globally) create, it shows the level of sophistication and advancement we are at. The more data a society creates, the more advanced it is currently. If you broke it down by country, you would see what I mean.

Interesting point. Just imagine this... All kinds of transmissions are leaking out into space. If and only if there is intelligent life out there. They can use the same hypothesis on us.

Humble, TX | If you think about how our solar system is similar to the structure of an atom, and you think about how many atoms there are in the air that we breathe.
If you could assume that there is intelligent civilization on one electron of one atom of every breath that we breath, you could imagine how much information is in the world around us. If we could only tap into that information....
