2.       (Comprehension) Summarize what is being discussed within this chapter?

Technology has taking away human work, and most of our works are oversea. Technology  has also took away banks taller jobs, now everything is done through computer there is no need to drive  to the banks and waiting in the line  to speak to a customer service  representative; when you can do it at your home. Therefore most of American jobs are move to other country because is cheaper and companies they don’t have health insurance or other expansive that they would have to pay here in the United State. Computer has eliminated a variety of jobs than any single new technological advance in the past years. Forrester research has estimate that 3,3million white collar jobs will have left the U.S for other country (Baase Pg316-21).

3.       (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced – be specific and explain?

A new solution for this type of problems is to pass a law that would not allowed companies to move away from the united stated. We need to educated people what they need to know about the new jobs, because most of the people they don’t know anything about technology and how it work. People think that technology is taking away jobs but technology is not the problem we are the problem because we human are one who make the choice of how we need to use it.  Technology can be good or bad depending how we use it, if people are losing jobs is not because of technology  is because the invention of technology now people are think different it may have to do with technology  but is the people make bad choice, we use technology as an excuse for our problems in life.   For example millions of people in the United State die due to a car accident, people said because of   technology how about the person who was driving the car he/her mad a choice to drive the care didn’t make choice. It’s the same thing with jobs (Baase Pg322-24).

4.       (Analysis)Address ANY that apply. How can you compare one of the situations in this chapter to something that does not relate to computers, technology, or the Internet? Be sure to reference the chapter and your solution. What ideas NEW can you add to the issue that is being presented within the reading? Try to connect what you have by reading this article and how it applies to the stages in Bloom's taxonomy in 2 full sentences. 

Technology  has reduce  the employment  in the United Sated , but computer technology  didn’t cause mass of unemployment for those who continually predict mass unemployment  they only see the old preexisting jobs that are lost. For example we can compare this situation to the great depression in 1930s, during the 1930s there was no technology and millions of people were not working people lost their home and very thing they had. How come we don’t say that it was technology who took the work for the people in 1930s?  Technology didn’t cause the great depression in the 1930 economist and historian attributes the depression to many things such the choice make about our money or federal reserve banks  inept manipulation of interest rates (Baase pg312-13)

5.       (Synthesis) Address all that apply. Do you agree with what is being said within the article (Why/Why not? Back up with FACTS)?  What new conclusions can you draw about this (or other topics) after reading this material?

I don’t agree with this chapter because technology is not the cause of job lost in this country.

Is the people who cause job elimination because they have a choice and we build the technology therefore technology is not responsible is the people who make bad choice.

6.       (Evaluation) Address all that apply. Judge whether or not this topic is relevant in today’s society? Evaluate why you are viewing the topic in this manner based on your experiences. What ethical evaluations (see Chap1-1.4 for exp of Ethics) or decisions were made/can is assumed from this chapter?  What new ideas will you make after reading this chapter?

 This topic very much relevant in today’s society, because most of the people in America today don’t have jobs  people are having difficulty  on pay the bills at home due to a limited job in the United states. Today software makes decisions that use to require trained thinking human beings. For example computer programs analyze loan application and decide which one to approve. Computer take over many of the professional jobs.  It will take about 100 hours in a high paying job for human to design a layout for new housing developments, when a computer can do the same job within half an hours.  My  new idea after reading  this  chapter is that don’t let technology  tell you what you can and can’t do in your life we being living on earth  for century without technology we need to stand up and do  thing the way we use to without technology.

This article is about computer hackers, or people who take other people property and how it affect the people who spend hours working and hacker just come and take it a way.

3. (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced – be specific and explain?

Fourteen people were arrested Tuesday for allegedly mounting a cyberattack on the website of PayPal in retaliation for its suspending the accounts of WikiLeaks FBI agents executed more than 35 search warrants around the country in an ongoing investigation into coordinated cyberattacks against major companies and organizations. It's really hard to arrest 30,000 people with evidence that is rock solid "Maybe I would get arrested, but my neighbor was using my Wi-Fi and the authorities thought I was running the software, but it's really my neighbor or even someone driving by in their car." people always have an excuse so they can get way with things. Computers hackers are the most difficulty issue to resolve in world wind, because it could be anybody in the world trying to get into the system.

A new solution for this problem is to limit all Wi- fi access in the neighbor only people who have password should allowed to use the internet and if there is a problem they should be responsible for their action.

Computers hackers Compare to Robbery, people have found an easy way to still money to other people. Is much easy to hackers into the system than showing up in person to still. Thief use to robbery a bank and get in the get away car , and the police would be able to track them if someone saw what kid car it was and their plate number of the car. In today world everything is done by electronic therefor there is no need to robbery a company in person when you can do it on the computer. the only solution for this kind problem is to make sure we keep safe our personal information and have a security for every site we use.

5. (Synthesis) Address all that apply. Do you agree with what is being said within the article (Why/Why not? Back up with FACTS)? What new conclusions can you draw about this (or other topics) after reading this material?

I agree with what is being said in this article, because people who are over the law should be taking in punishment for their actions. Hacking into someone banking or property is crime they don't have the right to break in people property, therefor they should be punish for what they done to people. illegal computer use should not to allowed in any ways, most of people in the United State are in dangerous of identity lost due to illegal activities that people are doing online. "The pursuit of cybercriminals is complicated by the fact that the Internet affords considerable anonymity to its users".

This topic is relevant in today society, because internet use has become physical to the world. The ethics chose is avoid them and save the personal information in privacy location. Many of people are losing their found because of computer hacking. Technology has increase the problems we are having in the world to day when technology was not around back in the days things were not as bad compare to today problems.

3. (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced – be specific and explain?

A new solution to this type problems to build a system that will work for everybody from dangerous hacking. nowadays hacking is so easy even a 13years old can get into the system and due a great impact on it. hacking can be good and bad it depend on the person who have the techniques,even the good intention could make a mistake and cause a significant damage accidentally almost all of the hackers are form of trespassing. for example a hackers group in Russia and Ukraine broke into more than 40 online business and stole more than a million credit card numbers . The use of internet has made more problem around the world than before. We live in a society that depend everything on technology we even forget the reality and the damage we are cause on earth.Pg260 – be specific and explain?

Hackers and robbery are the the most dangerous people on earth because they steal what ever you have and make money out of it. Back in the day thief will go to the bank and robbery and get a way with cars , to day everything is done to computers therefore they don't have to leave the house in which make the police hard to find them. Technology has increase the issue of people being robbery because once someone knows your credit card you are done unless you note it before it's too late. Even if you have security you can never be 100% safe.

5. (Synthesis) Address all that apply. Do you agree with what is being said within the article (Why/Why not? Back up with FACTS)? What new conclusions can you draw about this (or other topics) after reading this material?

I agree with what has been said in this chapter because hacking is trespassing someone else property and that person should be responsible for any damage he/she may be done for the cause of the property. For example in2007 a hacker planted a password stealing programs on the web sites of the supper bowl teams.Pg261

This kind of topic is relevant in today society because big business are being broken by theft stealing people money in their bank . The only chose we have is not use internet but that wouldn't be the cause because we love technology so much we will put our life in dangerous. People should know that hacking into someone else system is wrong and crime unless they have the permission to do so by the owner. We should also have a system that don't allowed people where they shouldn't be there in the first place.

2. (Comprehension) Summarize what is being discussed within this chapter?

People should not take other people works without their permission, and no one would like if someone came to your house and take something without you knowing. Intellectual property means that it;s someone idea and no body can take it away without asking for permission.

3. (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced?

A new solution for this problem is to limited what we put on the internet so it wouldn't be as easy to copy someone else work without them knowing. if people keep taking others work without pay the people who are doing the work and they are not getting pay they can't produce anymore work because no one is paying them for their ideas and hard work. A big issues for this problem is the advance of technology in the world because technology make the every thing easy to get.

5. (Synthesis) Address all that apply. Do you agree with what is being said within the article (Why/Why not? Back up with FACTS)? What new conclusions can you draw about this (or other topics) after reading this material?

I agree with what has been said this chapter, because people work should be protect with the law. Many of us wouldn't like it to work for free, their is no one would work for free in this world everyone want to get money on the things they have done. The question why are we doing to others for something that we wouldn't like? In conclusions the internet should make difficulty for people trying to copy somethings without paying for it and they should put a fine print that tells people what are the outcome if they copy something without permission.

6. (Evaluation) Address all that apply. Judge whether or not this topic is relevant in today’s society? Evaluate why you are viewing the topic in this manner based on your experiences. What ethical evaluations (see Chap1-1.4 for exp of Ethics) or decisions were made/can be assumed from this chapter? What new ideas will you make after reading this chapter?

This topic is very relevant in today society not many people go to the store and buy movies or music because they can just go online and get it for free. There no one would go to the store buy movies when they can go on the computer and get what they want at no cost. what we don't realized we are stilling other people property copying and sharing information about others and not asking their permission to do so.

they both talk about copy right form the book and the file. the main points are it's wrong to copy someone else is work and it's also a crimes to do so without the permission of the person who crate the work, in which they spend lot of money put their ideas to work.

5. What is BitTorrent? Explain what it does and how this technologic advancement had changed society. (Comprehension)

BitTorrent is an open source peer-to-peer protocol for downloading files on the internet. Open source means the code is available for anyone to modify and redistribute at will. Consequently there are several free BitTorrent programs available to the public, each with differing features.

The idea behind BitTorrent is to allow massive distribution of popular files without penalizing the source by soaring bandwidth costs and possible crashes due to demand that exceeds the capability of the server. In this way, anyone who creates a popular program, music file or other product can make it available to the public regardless of assets, even if the file becomes highly popular.

7. Analyze what you’ve watched. Use your Baase connections. What do you think is the future of distribution, production and creativity? What do you think is the future of Intellectually Property in the Information Age? ? (Analysis)

The future of distribution information it make us we are as people working together sharing information about others. the advance of technology keep us connect with each other even if that person live in anther country we talk to them, such facebook or my space million of people are using online service to become friends to people they never met before. the only good ways for a better future is for us to be able to talk to each other. When it comes to intellectual property the future is still the same because their is no way to put a stop on unless we don't post our idea in the internet and make it difficulty for people to the information that we don't want them to have.

8. Do you think that downloading is stealing someone’s Intellectual Property? Why or why not? Back up with Baase (Analysis)?

yes i thank that downloading someone intellectual property is stealing, because you didn't pay for it and the person who make the work spent lot of money just to achieve his/he work and it will be wrong for you to download their work without their permission or pay for what you have download. It's like i came to your house and i was not welcome to come inside and take one of your TV sell it on ebay for $3.00

9. How do you see issues of copyright and Intellectual property effecting the world 50 years from today? be specific (Synthesis)

Chapter 3: Video's and Prezi"

Internet Freedom:

People have no control of their Internet freedom and their privacy because is being control by the government therefore the information is not balance. for example people pay more money on their cable serves for over 100 channels but we don't watch those the average american in the household watch they about 16 channels. we are being force to pay for something that we don't even use it. Cable stations has took away the right people to decide the channels they want in their TV.

b. the state of California has pass a law banning spam to cell phone and pagers because it imposes a cost of the recipient, but the reduce of spam are not likely to eliminate all the problems.
c.

2. (Comprehension) Summarize what is being discussed within this chapter?

people this day can download millions of song into their ipod and not paying for it because they just go to site and download for free . the use of technology has also an big impact on children and how telecommunication change the society, in terms of getting information out that is bad for children such as showing pornography pictures to a minors. ( Baase p151-52)




3. (Application)Name a specific example or NEW solution for this type of problem/similar situation in society or that you have experienced – be specific and explain?

this kinds of problem is still an issue in society today. for example Mcdonald has become the world wide fast food the country mostly in children because they are essay to get. when they see an aids on TV about fast food they would go to their parents to tell them that they need that kind of food. in some case parents have no control , they couldn't no to the kids. we have children that are under years old and they are overweight due to bad choice and aids on TV or newspaper.

5. (Synthesis) Address all that apply. Do you agree with what is being said within the article (Why/Why not? Back up with FACTS)? What new conclusions can you draw about this (or other topics) after reading this material?
i agree with this chapter because the problems of internet in the public libraries some people use to terminals to look at x-rated picture while others are witting in line to use the computer. children accessed adult sexual materials which cause an issue for the library staff. in conclusions the library should block some of the sites so that young children shouldn't be able to access the site and the government shout take a step into action on the things that are bad for kids in which may harm them beside the government shouldn't allowed pornography into the web site in the first place.(P157-58)


6. (Evaluation) Address all that apply. Judge whether or not this topic is relevant in today’s society? Evaluate why you are viewing the topic in this manner based on your experiences. What ethical evaluations (see Chap1-1.4 for exp of Ethics) or decisions were made/can be assumed from this chapter? What new ideas will you make after reading this chapter?

this can of topic is very much relevant in today society a study has shown that people who view pornography has show a low test rate in the schools. the solution for this problems to develop a software filter to block access to an inappropriate materials on the internet. we shouldn't have to put bad things online so we can make money people are even worry about the safety of us when it comes to money, but how long are we going to hurt others and not knowing that we are hurting people across the country. what happen to the freedom of speech or do we really have freedom of speech if so how come we done nothing to stop the dangerous of using internet / technology in youth. also parent should take action on the use of internet at home such allowing kids to use computer only when are dong homework and computer should be at the living room where parents can see what is going on.( P158-60)
