    There are strong arguments in favour of remote or teleworking. Time saved not having to commute into a central office can translate into higher productivity, better quality of life, and give people with families more flexibility over how they organise their time.

    I find this very Interesting as it shows a newer side to hacking, instead of steal to destroying.

    Hmm, this is rather interesting however I would like to see an analysis of this article from a critical point of view as allot of the information seems slightly blown out of proportion which, in turn makes it seem biased. My apologies for bringing Tok and possibly English into this but i just thought that this exemplifies the fact that the media seems to take hacking and use it as a way of talking down on other groups of people such as "activists" as mentioned within the article.

    I would say that while I agree with this article in terms of what it is saying about distanced communication in business being a result of the way technology has developed, I would also say that in this situation the benefits outweigh the problems by far.

    The reason I chose this particular article is that the speed of spread a thing on the internet is extremely fast. The colour of dress became a popular question because the power of internet. People all around the world gather together to discussion. I think this might be the strength of social network.

    I chose this article because it's has close connection with this course. The invention of AVG invisibility glass relates to both social issues that the efficiency of CCTV in public places might be reduced and it will become harder to stop discrimination, also ethical issue that the privacy of a person might be protected. The use of technology that relates to infrared LED light is also worth further learning and investigating.

    The names and license plate numbers of about 50,000 Uber drivers were compromised in a security breach last year, the company revealed Friday. Uber discovered a possible breach of its systems in September, and a subsequent investigation revealed an unauthorized third party had accessed one of its databases four months earlier, the company said.

    that's a perfect example of ethical issues such as privacy as the data might contain phone numbers, addresses of people, and there is security issue as we do not know how the data will be used

  • Secondly, governments hold confidential information. Both data from its individual citizens and country specific security data. As all information becomes digital and available to anyone who cares to see it, security breaches are inevitable. And while many corporations have had scandals regarding customer information being leaked or hacked, governments are more susceptible, as they rarely attract the best IT people in the field as employees. Again, they tend to react after the fact rather than proactively.
