What is Apple? Apple is a multinational technology company. So far Apple has had a problem with the FBI. The FBI wanted Apple to create a new software that can hack into a person’s iPhone to examine their personal information, but Apple refused. Apple’s decision on not allowing the FBI to hack into people’s iPhone was right. In the article entitled PRO/CON: Should Apple have resisted FBI pressure to hack an iPhone?

adhere to the Prime Minister’s wishes and not report on the subject, revealing the nasty truth behind the legitimacy of media networks as the reporter got her information through nude pictures, flirting and trespassing. Here, the viewer is forced to reconcile with the fact that if it weren't for the constant need for the newest information, television stations would not feel the economic pressures they do, which in turn force them to act in a corrupt…

whether the agency is holding records of their telephone communications. Simply answering yes or no, the NSA argues, is classified information that would jeopardize the effectiveness of its data-collection program. That means that innocent people whose communications data may be held by the agency have no way of even finding out. The NSA's refusal to provide that information is based on a legal precedent called a "Glomar denial," which claims that simply acknowledging the existence or…

terrorists to robbers, the use of technology allows these people to have an advantage over law enforcement. The terrorist attack in Mumbai used modern communications to allow the terrorist to have an advantage over the police by having a live feed of information from a control center. On the other side of crime is the advancing of gene and cell technology. The same technology that saves people from cancers and vaccines can modify and create new kinds of viruses to harm people. I believe Mark…

What I took away from the video Online Therapy was an odd combination of “of course that makes sense” and “I have never thought of it that way before.” I am sure there are younger people in our class who are very comfortable with the concept of therapy in the digital age. However I am past 40, and at first, the idea seemed like something I would not consider. I must confess though I have taken part in therapy sessions for my son utilizing online methods without even realizing that is what I…

Warshak case, the federal government wanted to search emails from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) but there was no legitimate warrant and if they had searched them, it would have went against the ISP’s fourth amendment…

In a dystopian society, truth about government actions is generally kept from the citizens. Information that is free to the public in a utopia is not free to those living under a dystopian government. Keeping secrets from the general public for their “benefit” isn’t the correct way to conduct the public’s business. If today’s government keeps enough secrets from the citizens, it can eventually lead to a dystopian society. There have been many cases where the US government has abused its power…
