    Should the right to online privacy be considered a fundamental entitlement?

    You should have the right to choose the information you share. That's why every site has an obligation to tell the users about their privacy policies before the user can decide using the site or not. Online privacy is a fundamental human right. We always choose to give it out.

    Will robots take over someday?

    Artificial intelligence won't take away human jobs in the real sense. It would only make some job roles irrelevant. Humans have to evolve and get into the job roles that AI itself would create. Artificial intelligence would also create some job openings too.

    Police Shooting to Kill

    Police by right don't ever shoot to kill. The primary purpose of police shooting is to disarm and immobilize a suspect. Of course, mistakes happen. But if you are innocent, you shouldn't put yourself in a position where they consider shooting at you. Just surrender and let them do their work.

    Even if we leave out the behind the scene activities, celebrities have very short career spans. Careers of most celebrities don't even last more than 10 to 12 years and no one would look at them again. They deserve everything they get to compensate for the short career span.

    Should the police shoot fierce-looking dogs ?

    The dogs were aggressive in this particular instance and it is just natural that the police fire at them. I don't think any other person could do differently given the circumstances. The police won't have fired if they were just fierce looking and not being aggressive towards the policemen.

    Making voting compulsory negates the very foundation of democracy which is freedom of choice. Voting should be a thing of choice. If it is low voters turnout, the solution is to build confidence of the people about the electoral system. They would turn out to vote if they trust the system.

    The gays...

    The only point where I would have problems with gays is when they try to shove their sexual orientation as a norm to everyone. As long as they stick to one corner of the world and live their lives, I am cool with them.

    What age do you feel is acceptable for a child to have a mobile phone?

    I think a child should own a mobile phone from 10 years old. I think that at that age, the child is to a large extent mature enough to stick to precautions given to him by parents and guardians over smartphone usage.

    What are your thoughts on public prayer in schools?

    When it comes to religion, I always believe that whatever works for a particular person should be pursued. There is nothing wrong for a school whose founders are from a particular religion to publicly pray in their religious manner. If it doesn't sit down well with anyone, there are lots of...

    Should teenagers get after-school jobs?

    Allowing your child to get an after school job would prepare that child's mind for financial responsibility as the child grows up. It should not be a really cumbersome job like that but the child must learn the importance of Money and how it is earned. It is something I advocate for within control.

It is the personality that would determine if you would have peace with that person or not. I value the personality of a person...

    Should prison be less of a luxury?

    That can only happen in the American society because the United States believes so much in the dignity of humans.
