    It's interesting you bookmarked this today. I was just looking at an assignment page from my old website that I'm going to transfer to my new site, and that ethics page is one of the references! http://www.beens.org/misc_assign/computerEthics.htm

Computer Viruses and the Internet « Welcome to a Bloggin' Education - 0 views

  •  
    I have spent a lot of time throughout the years researching and collecting facts and stimulus materials on the topic of Computer Viruses. Recently when I was watching my regular TED talk on my phone I watched this talk by Mikko Hypponen. I found it fascinating for the way in which he not only explores and shows some of the history of viruses but also talks of the social and ethical implications of the contemporary viruses being releases. He explores the use of viruses from a cyber-crime and organised-crime perspective.

Android phones keep location cache, too, but it's harder to access - 0 views

  •  
    Following the revelation that iPhones log location data even if you don't use location-based services, a software developer has demonstrated that Android devices perform the same type of logging. Though there are some differences and the on-device data isn't accessible in the same way, Google does collect this data in a way that could be tied to an individual user.
