Great Debate: Should any Internet freedom ever be sacrificed to fight piracy? | ZDNet - 10 views

  •  
    Agree or disagree? all feb 10 soobin
  •  
    Agree Agree to some extent. Internet freedom can be sacrificed only to a certain extent to fight piracy. Getting rid of internet freedom is basically the same thing as shutting out the communication lines of the world. The source of the reason why piracy is done is mainly due to the fact that people can't afford the items that they wish to use, or need to use, because they are ridiculously overpriced. These industries don't think that way because they want profit, however, if piracy was stopped, then no one will buy their products anyways because they still can't afford it. Popularity of the product will decrease, and the marketing of the product basically just failed. We need to compromise something so that piracy is decreased until there is no more. But suddenly stopping everything in one shot with something like SOPA isn't the way to go. Disagree I disagree. The internet should be free and open. We need to educate people not to download pirated software, movies and music. Doing so is the same as stealing from a shop, which most people would not do. Most people would be prepared to pay small amount for the right to download these things. If governments try to remove websites, it is the same as censorship which sometimes happens in dictatorships but should not happen in free societies. We really need freedom for the internet, so that we can easily share our own ideas, and thoughts. Unlike China, where people can't even talk gossip about governments, which is a basic human right. But China is still very famous for internet piracy. The United States should not have the power to prevent freedom of internet because they are not the world's police force. They should not have the power to dictate what happens in the rest of the world. That's why internet freedom should not be sacrificed.

    Read Heads-up. Describe two guidelines from each section that you think are relevant advice. May 9 kuni
  •  
    Share with care Your online actions can have real-world consequences. The pictures you post and the words and the words you write can affect the people in your life. Think before you post and share. The advice, mainly for children, is that before you click to send email or when you're ready to post or send a message or a photo, download a file, game or program, or shop for something-stop for a second. Think about things like: Do you know and trust who you're dealing with-or what you're sharing or downloading? How will you feel if your information ends up somewhere you didn't intend? Get someone's okay before you share photos or videos they're in. Online photo albums are great for storing and sharing pictures of special events, and camera phones make it easy to capture every moment. Stop and think about your own privacy-and other people's-before you share photos and videos online. It can be embarrassing, unfair and even unsafe to send or post photos and videos without getting permission from the people in them. Interact With Tact Avatars are people too. When you're playing a game or exploring an online world where you can create a character and interact with others, remember real people are behind those characters on the screen. Respect their feelings just INTERACT WITH TACT like you would in person. Remember that your character or avatar is a virtual version of you-what does it tell people about you and your interests? Speak up. If you see something inappropriate on a social networking site or in a game or chat room, let the website know and tell an adult you trust. Using Report Abuse links can help keep sites fun for everyone. The Protection Connection Learn about social mapping. Many mobile phones have GPS technology, and there are applications that allow you to find your friends-and allow them to find you. Use GPS and social mapping apps only with people you know personally and trust. Take advantage of privacy features in
