While this article starts out about a lawfirm in Birmingham UK that is going to "track down people who make anonymous comments about companies online" it becomes an amazingly poignant article on the very nature of the Internet today and the push pull between anonymous commenting and accountability of the commenter. Push pull between free speech and online identity and brand protection. One person in this article claims that this sort of thing is the sign that the "wild west" of the INternet is coming to an end. Oh dear, I hope someone invents a new one if somehow anonymous commenters are now going to risk such! Also love the article's discussion of the Streisand effect wherein Barbara protested the sharing of some photos of her eroding beachfront which caused a stir and more people looking at the photos than if she had left it alone. This article is going to be a must read for Flat Classroom students and would be great for college-level discussions as well.

Important article that would make a great video story for someone predicting how the Internet is changing - with commenters being hunted down by companies!

Teachers have a different standard. It is fascinating to read this newspaper article and also the responses. Our students on Flat Classroom project and Digiteen will be reviewing this information because teachers are held to a higher standard online.

Read this to understand that teachers don't really have a personal life online.

New technology has allowed students to take MOOCs, which are massive open online courses, for college credit. However, colleges have to make sure that students taking the course away from campus and laptops are not cheating on the final exam. To do this they developed software that colleges can use to monitor students through webcams, screen sharing, and high-speed Internet connections. They can also check out their photo IDs, signatures, and typing styles.
