1. I think that by having more of our lives online our lives will become more visible cause the internet have so many information on us. For example, you have webpage like face book that have all your information on it and people from the outside will alway have certain access to you. Fermore you have the twitter account page that people twit out everyday to each other. Some of those tweets have personal information on it and the people from the outside could see these detail. So i think that having more of our lives online will make our lives more visible to outsider cause they are seeing your information on the net.

2. In addition,  the only way to prevent outsider from tracking the smallest detail of our lives is not to sign up for certain webpage like facebook and twitter that way your personal  information stay with you cause the only way outsider track your information is only if you are giving it to them and i feel that what some of the these webpage they gives out personal information of you. So i feel that the only way to prevent outsiders to have the smallest details about is not to open up account with some of these social network sites.

I don’t use access very much at work, but my friend does and she used it for these

For recent decade, Vietnam’s technology has been developing rapidly. From information technology aspect, there are more and more people has accessed to internet. In big cities, almost households has equipped internet either by cables or DSL. It has been largely spread out for trade and management. There are more people confidentially trade stocks through internet, and more people uses internet to create online stores or mini shops that receive order online and deliver products to home within a day. People do not have to wait for long time to have accesses to new technology devices such as smartphones or tablets, computers. It has made our lives more comfortable and convenient. It helps us access more knowledge and tighten the gaps between us and the world. In another hand, there is still lack of privacy and security concern over information technology. Almost websites are self-establishment, and they do not have security. Even though we have access and manage bank account online, we never do it at home since lack of security over the internet. Credit card system has not yet develop completely so that owner of online stores or mini shops usually get paid when products are delivered.

• 1. Should executors be allowed access to a deceased persons’ email and Facebook accounts?
• I think executors should be allowed access to a deceased persons’ email and Facebook accounts in certain situations.  Such as Helen and Jay Stassen’s son who committed suicide, due to the unclear death of their son, they need to find out the answer.  Therefore executors should have the right to access his accounts to find more related information.
• 2. Why would technology companies like Google be opposed to laws that allow other people to access a user’s account after that person dies?
• Google is a worldwide company that keeps a lot of customers that based on their trusts on the company.  They believe that Google provides a trustable service that won’t divulge any of their pravicy out.  If Google cannot keep up its service, they might lose lots of customers, which means they might lose lots of business.

How is Google using its monopoly of the Internet to further its own interests?

The articles shows us the threat of the current biggest giant search engine Google that using its monopoly power to dominate Internet area. Google uses its recent dominant in web searching engine and its humongous resources to unfairly promote its new products such as Yelp, a finding places searching engine, or Expedia, a traveling looking tool. Whenever we want to search anything on Google web search, we can notice that Google prioritize its own products by putting them on the first list even though it is sometimes relative new to customers. These actions help made other competitor company easily fall behind Google’s products and seemingly do not have chance to get back unless they do not use Google web search. In addition, Google may use its power to buy competitors’  resources, or even buy their companies and become bigger and bigger. According to the article, “Google now controls over 90% of the market in several European countries.” It is certainly wrong because Internet must not be dominated by one, and it should be executing by several companies. In the future, there would be not many innovation in Internet field if it is dominated by a monopoly company.

What is going to happen to Google if they are found guilty of the violating anti-trust laws ?

If Google are found guilty, not only Google will have to pay huge fines for its lawsuits, but also it will stop or delay its spreading power. It is good chance for other rival companies inventing something news to compete against Google in the future. It is not late for U.S Federal Trade Commission or European Commission to file lawsuits against Google for the developing Internet scope.

The role of technology in the Egyptian revolution

Technological tools were being used by those who are pursuing more participatory governance in Egypt. Many have used them to great impact, the most famously the April 6 youth movement and Wael Ghonim, the Google executive who was one of the creators of the “ We are all Khaled Said” facebook group and Youtube campaign. Both have been described in the western media for connecting a new generation of Egyptian activists. Even mobile phones were little used in campaigns by the labor movement and judiciary. Social networking is a very famous force in certain layers of Egyptian society.it is a common source for news and information for everyone.

Facebook is the most popular platform, many Facebook users see the site as more of a publishing platform than a space for online socializing. Facebook is the most interesting application of new media; many parties in Egypt used Facebook as a spin machine, Whenever the government provided an opportunity. When security forces broke in their front door on January 26,2011 they immediately put up a Facebook group to collect popular anger and let the media know. This strategy is effective because traditional media such as newspapers and broadcast news shows often report on the size of these groups as a proxy of expressing their own political views.

In addition mobile phones played an important role in the revolution. Text messages and voice calls enabled the Egyptian people to stay informed, and to communicate among themselves and to the outside world.

2. What do you think of the maker movement?

User participation advances as technology advances over time. It has become easier/more affordable to learn how to do things yourself. With youtube you can easily learn how to patch a hole in the wall with a 2 minutes DIY video. This saves the user time and money on top of the personal satisfaction of accomplishing the task by oneself. I think the maker movement will continue to grow with a exponentially increasing population of DIY selfers.
