  • And if you’re not in the US and think SOPA is something that’s happening far away and won’t affect you, think again. If passed into law, our lives online will be very different.
  • If passed, the act will give the United States Attorney General the ability to close down websites which infringe copyrights, as well as ban them from using online paying facilities such as PayPal and Visa.
  • YouTube may have to rethink its set up as it was created as a platform on which internet users could upload, watch and share videos with each other on the internet. When uploading a video onto YouTube, users are faced with a message stating

  • Governments, on the other hand, usually lag behind and are forced to catch up.
  • But this leaves governments vulnerable in many ways and thus, it can be said that generally speaking, information technology has a negative impact on governments.
  • governments are not leaders in technology

  • Everyone's business and personal activities are available online. And while this trend is affecting the ability of individuals to obtain jobs or entry into excellent schools, it is also adversely affecting the government. Conversations, actions, decisions and motives are being played out on the internet in emails, social networking sites, videos and personal blogs. Government officials and employees can no longer hide in a shroud of secrecy
  • Enriching the lives of the poor in developing nations can be achieved through the use of modern day technologies such as medical treatment databases, cell phones to improve livelihoods, and computers to enable ability the citizens to compete for online jobs in the global market.

  • Web 2.0 ultimately returns to the idea of using software to create optimal knowledge building opportunities for doctors
  • In closing, let me say that Web 2.0's push for openness has resulted in the expectation of equal amounts of transparency and openness in medical publishing.
