Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 is home to a dystopian future where technology has taken hold of society, allowing no room for interpersonal connections. Bradbury saw how engrossed people were by the new technologies introduced in the 1950’s and felt that, if not controlled, this technology had the potential to dominate society as a whole. Though there was no way Bradbury could have known exactly how the future would look, his general predictions were quite accurate. In today’s times, our lives…

the thought of placing spyware on children’s computers. Coben’s purpose was to persuade parents to place spyware on their children’s, or to at least think about it, to monitor their children’s internet usage. The intended audience of this article is parents with children/teens who go on or use the internet. Coben states that parents should be open to the idea of spyware and talk to their children about it, but they…

reading Coben’s article, I have found that I disagree with his opinion. In the article, as coben writes while referring to a child, he states clearly “Shouldn’t he learn now that the Internet is not a haven of privacy?” (par. 9).

The first amendment gives the right to american citizens for the freedom of expression of ideas and words. Censorship is…

Steven Johnson communicates the useful components of computer games and TV and the way that they depend on their arrangement. I thought that it was intriguing in light of the fact that players in computer games truly make sense of complex storylines and piece puzzles together which they're receiving an "Intellectual exercise” that teaches them the same skills that math problems and board games grant. It doesn't really strike me because I learned this from my brother. At a very young age he…

In his essay “Undercover Parent,” Harlan Coben supports the idea of using spyware on teenager’s electronics by parents. Using this spyware you have the ability to “log every keystroke your child makes” (2) and invading their private space. While this idea is valid because most parents who do this are loving and only want to protect their children from harm, by placing this spyware on a teen’s electronics you are not only evading their privacy but also their trust. This is because more than…
