Anyone who is worried about their privacy.

In todays world no one can be completely private, he agrees.

The CSO article about stealing a dead mans shopping card. He is saying even when your dead your privacy can still be taken away.

The last paragraph has some ethos and pathos when he is talking about how business will have to change. an example of ethos is the sentence that starts with "If companies remain complacent..."

I would say yes it is a very factual article written in the Harvard Business Review which is a credible service. It is only 3 years out of date so it still is relatively modern,and very comprehensive as long as your are mildly knowledgeable of the topic.

We hear about how grand theft auto is corrupting today’s youths. With a game based on all violence and unethical decisions it is not something for children to be playing.  We can’t expect our children to just know what it is actually doing to their subconscious.

With grand theft auto we are training our children to kill. The government has spent millions of dollars on training to people to become less skittish on killing someone with simulations like this games. According to Beck “ They trained on the great-grandfather of video games.”

I think that it was a very biased clip. He left out that you are supposed to be 18 and older when you by the game where he made it out to be 8u year olds playing it. He also made it seem like they were trying to brain wash children into murdering. This game hasn’t been out for more than ten years and if it was so crucial to making people kill why didn’t he use a statistic on that. Kit was very opinionated with no hard data other than the military information which was just related but never solidly linked.

That so many people are stealing music now.
The purpose is to inform you how stealing music is not needed.
She breaks it into three reasons and says that music can be used on all terms now and Itunes no longer restrics, she says that you are supporting your band with every download, and she is saying how cheap it is to download.
It says that I should buy music instead of taking it.

1)      When I was at home I would pirate music all the time. I have an ipod with over 2000 songs and I’d be lying if I said I spent 100$ on it.
2)      I know it is illegal but they don’t enforce it if you stay under a certain limit.
3)      You either pirate music or don’t there is no really middle ground.
4)      I think its fine. Itunes is now 1.30 and why spend that when you can take just as long convering a song from youtube. I think it is wrong though when people are making CD’s and selling them for a profit.
5)      It is stealing of others property.

Today I looked at Stephan guendarts facebook. He is portraying a military person. The content is posted because he is in his service uniform. The ads were about the tech wake forest game. It also has a Ad for Battlefield 3 which makes sense because he enjoys playing video games.  For the tech ad it says Va Tech vs. Wake forest with Tech on top asserting dominance. On the side it says who will win. Making you interested in the game.  It would be on his facebook because he is a tech student and goes to every game.
