The article I read was about what
would happened if the American national security was being electronically
breached by a computer terrorist. The article was very long and in depth but
what I summaries from the reading is that we need to be prepared to handle the
problem that would come with a computer terrorist. What would we do to combat
with this hyper tactical issue? I feel that it is like a bigger version of the
9-11 issue which has to be solved by the same technically ingenuity used by the
hackers who started this problem in the first place. If this were to happen the
US government would just have to use the people tech agents who they have
trained to take on such a task. This is an issue that I cannot really express a
solution for because we have not witness anything so relative to an
international computer terrorist breach. I feel that if such a thing was to
happen our government and its allies would handle the issue in a matter of
weeks.

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.

Comm352: Blog2: Steve Jobs Patent
Just from reading the title of the article I knew that the
issue had to do with patents product software or ideas; not be permitted to be
shared or accessed by other companies not authorized by Apple Inc.
Basically what i got form the reading is that Steve Job doesn't
want any company or any partner company to steal or take any content or info or
etc that was not given permission to in the license. Job is basically doing to
other companies what Microsoft does to Apple. Job is just making sure other
companies use what was given to them and nothing more. There was also a
conflict about other companies trying to or recruiting employees of Apple Inc,
and I understand where job is coming from on that note because that is not a
fair business model. I don’t believe that if someone has the right to do
business with you and then turn your back and go hire some of you employees and
research groups. It is all a business issue that Jobs was trying to enforce,
which states that it is against Apples' policy to hire from their groups or to
steal/take info or etc that were not authorized in the agreement. One other
thing that Jobs was stating is that companies that work with them need to know
the difference between a license and a patient. Some of the main issues came
forth because people were not operating according to their licenses and some
acted like they had bought the whole patent. I feel that Jobs and the Apple
team were right and totally justified. Plus I think Jobs is a good businessman
all round.

Comm352 Blog 1: Adam Swartz And JSTOR
It is a sad story that is not covering a lot of details. To my understanding and knowledge Adams was breaking the law by accessing informaton that is not meant for the public. Adam was committing felonys through internet pirating. I think that he was a very smart person who lost hisself and went off the edge. He had a good cause but that does not mean you can commit internet crimes and get away with it. Just because you are a smart person doesn't mean you have the fight to hack into government database and give private information out to the public. I feel that Adam was wrong in what he did. I know that he was fighting against the SOPA laws that would give the government the right and power to shut down any site that was breaking copyright laws. I respect his cause to fight for our freedom of speech rights to access any information, but i still respect the privacy law and the right for a business to make money. I don't know what drove him so close to the edge to jump off and take his life, but i wish the best for his family. I don't like the fact that he was a killer who took his own life. Even though it was 50% the prosecutors' fault for motivating and persuading Adam to think that his life was going to be worthless by staying alive because if his potential punishments, but Adam is still a grown adult male who needed to face life and not run away with it. What i got from this blog story is that there are many struggles that people are fighting for all over the world for and we need to be grateful for the little things like the freedom to use google.

Comm461:Cultural Events Blog
For my
cultural assignment I visited a lot of shows and gathering on Shepherd
University campus. Four out of the 5 events were Shepherd University based.
However, I left Shepherdstown for the fifth event which was a movie called
Paranormal
activity 4, which was pretty sucky because the sequel was being dragged on too
long and it got played out. The other four events were a pianist concert by
Caroline Hong which I enjoy because I love music and also because she did a
good job. I also saw an alumni exhibition in the frank center and it was a bit
interest but I think the artist which was is Shepherd University grad, did not
excite me too much with her comic artwork. Nevertheless it was interesting. I
also saw a video about recycling in Reynolds Hall, which I enjoyed because I am
totally pro-recycling. I went to a concert in the frank center consisting of the
Shepherd University Men’s Choir, Women’s Camerata, Vocal Jazz Octet, and the
Chamber Singer. I enjoyed that concert because it was versified and unique.
