    Embryonic stem cell research is the most controversial stem cell research since it involves destroying a human embryo. Embryonic stem cells are more beneficial than adult stem cells because they grow quicker and target a wider category of diseases. Creating and then destroying embryos is an non ethical treatment of the value of life.

Britz brings together the concept of privacy as it relates to ethics, confidentiality, socio-economical effects, and autonomy. Well written and researched.

    Since I'm not the most social person by nature, I'm not very active with social media. I don't have a Facebook, or Twitter, or whatever. So, if anyone tries to Google me, there's not much that comes up. Hmm, I wonder if that could backfire if a potential employer can't find any information on me by using social media.

'Stop and Frisk' Stirs Up, Rather than Deters, Youth Crime | TIME.com - 0 views

  •  
    "Law enforcement reminders of the consequences of criminal behavior are supposed to curb illegal activity, but some of these intimidation strategies may be backfiring, especially among youth. In the latest study of stop and frisk policies, in which law enforcement randomly stop individuals for questioning even if they aren't engaged in criminal activity, researchers found that those who were stopped were more likely than those who were not to engage in delinquent behavior later on."
