Comm352:Blog5:Christopher Dorner LAPD Murder Story

This was a tragic story that is too deep for outside viewers like us readers of this Vice article, and the rest of the public to fully understand. Dorner was going through some tough times that only he and involved officers could analyze. From my understating there were a lot of dirty secret scandals that were going on and both Dorner and his fellow officers were in the wrong. With Dorners stress in his personal life and all the stress of his scandalous co-workers, he just blew his top. However, there is no need to go on a rampage and start shooting things up. Apparently there is this person named "Anonymous" that is siding with Dorner and feels that he is not 100% wrong and though he was pushed to the edge if he had lived to go to court...he might have told the whole story and all the truth would have came out from both sides. The death of Dorner has left the public with lost of lives, unanswered questions and less trust for the Los Angeles Police Department.

Comm352: blog 4 wifi for all


Personally i think wifi should always be free because websites get paid by advertisers and not by people who provide internet. If advertisement slots are still being bought and sold then somebody is getting paid and that is a good thing for everybody. Internet provides like Viso and cable companies like Comcast and Dish Network are going to get paid when they provide internet whether or not they charger their clients because they are still getting paid from the websites charging the advertisers. I guess this action that the Federal Communications Commission wants to implicate is not going to hurt the internet providers but just the cellphone plan providers like sprint t-mobile, at&t and etc. I think with one of type market gone there will be room for a new type of market to come in. Google and Microsoft says that it is a good idea and that it will allow people to learn more and be innovative and it will also allow the lower income homes to access the internet and apply online and learn various things that are offered on the internet. If google and microsoft are not apposing the idea than it is probably a good idea, although they are only saying that it is ok because they are not being affected. The article says that it will hurt the cellphone companies but i do not believe that and i think that is just an exaggeration. As for the implications that the RIAA wants to put into action, i think that it is a good idea but like the article says the real rich and smart people are just going to get a business class broadbrand account package.

CMM352: Blog 3: Computers..Where are They going


I think computers are going everywhere (lol.) They are basically going to be everywhere and in everything like you phone your car and your wallet. There are computers being built in your refrigerators. I think the technology for computers are growing where they are getting smaller and the processing speed is getting faster. I can see maybe in 100 to 1000 years there might even be in your shoes and clothes. More and more computers are being bought because more people feel the need or urge to always be on the Internet. Also with more and more business switch to the web or being web-based you will see a bigger demand for computers or tablets. Laptops are the mean things these days because of the speed and compatibility; and because more people are going back to school to better their education. Computers are always needed and one day they will literally be everywhere.
