Have you ever felt like the internet is a dangerous place for you to be on? As a parent should you use a spyware to monitor your child? Coben’s claim is that parents should use spyware to monitor their child; the internet is also a dangerous place to be on. In my opinion parents shouldn’t use spyware to monitor their children because as a child is growing they are learning. The internet is not a dangerous place to be unless you search up something bad. At this point I disagree and agree with…

Do I think parents should be able to use censorship with their children to block out anything that is offensive until they are ready? Yes, I think parents should have that choice. Would I want my parent to use it with me? No, not really because if so I would not be as informed as all of my other friends would be if their parents didn´t use censorship. Should parents have the choice? Of course I would think parents should have the choice of censorship. If they want to raise their children that…

Coben’s claim in the article, “Undercover Parent” is that parents should monitor what their child is doing on the computer. I also agree with Coben because I believe that parents should put spyware on their child’s use of the internet. I agree because spyware can be used to keep your child safe and away from the dangers that are in the internet. Spyware can be put into your child’s internet by downloading the software from a vendor and then you will receive the reports on what they do. Spyware…

"In terms of monitoring Internet content, I believe there is a fine line in allowing first amendment rights to freedom of speech and press, while also not going overboard in regards to censorship. In today’s world of human sex trafficking, sexual scandals in our school systems, and cyberbullying, there has to be some form of monitoring Internet content to protect our young people. At the same time, I don’t want big brother knowing every email or social media message I send to every friend…

Censorship is the the examination of books, movies, etc. and suppressing the parts found inappropriate. It is a practice that is used universally and is monitored by the Federal Communications Commision or the FCC. Censorship mainly happens when an individual or a group succeeds in imposing their personal morals or views on others.

The internet can be a dangerous place for kids. Coben’s argument is,should parents put spyware on their kids internet to see what they are doing on the internet. Coben explains how spyware can be a good use to parents to spy on their kids. He shows that spyware can give you the ability to log every keystroke your child makes and a good portion of his or her private world. All you have to do is download the software on your computer and you now have the spyware on your computer to see what your…

In the article, “The Undercover Parent,” Harlen Coben explains why he believes parents of teenagers should monitor their child’s online use using spyware. He states that the internet can be dangerous. I agree to this. However, I feel that when monitoring becomes spying, it has gone too far. Spying on innocent teenagers is inappropriate. It is an an invasion of privacy, makes people uncomfortable, and is unnecessary. Like I have said, spying is an invasion of privacy. Imagine someone secretly…

Censorship: Is Ignorance Bliss? The issue of censorship has been a long debated topic that has become more widespread over time. It forces us to discuss what could potentially be offensive to someone or a group of people and omit details to avoid controversy. In some instances censorship is taken to the extreme and the slow build up of said omissions can lead to bigger societal issues. Censorship affects society as a whole and its overuse leads to an inept sense of communication and ignorance.…

“You are pretty f*****g awesome. Keep that s**t up.” This line has been censored, because it contained several inappropriate words. This kind of censorship is considered completely fine, but does it get it’s point across anymore? Even with replacements for those words, it’s meaning is lost due to the lack of strength and feeling that’s being put into it, but I’m not saying that swearing is absolutely necessary to put passion into a message, but it does help do that every now and then. However,…
