Description
State how cyberspace has taken control of your life. If you have some Cyber superpowers that you employ to control the urge to cyberspace, please share your secret.
Chart three positive and three negative things that contribute to your technological captivation.
Tell us, how do you know that you are a captive of technology? Do you carry your electronic devices with you everywhere? If you hear a ringing in your ear, do you start a desperate search for the source of the ringing, even though you have your phone in your hand and it is not lit up, ringing, vibrating, or flashing? Do you check your email, text messages, Internet favorites, voicemail, order the latest gadget, play the newest video game, and inspect all your social media accounts simultaneously? Well, that’s just a few indicators that you may have Cyberspace fever.
Your post for this assignment should include a discussion about the giant technology companies. In your post, detail how electronic access to the Internet and its algorithms designed to captivate you with cyber-things have increased their footprint in your life.
Discuss the effect of advertisements, enticements, free shipping, registrations, memberships, digital wallets, and payments. Discuss the impact of a company-owned device. How many hours of personal time do you spend in the after-hours continuing to work at home? Ask yourself, whether the cyberspace controllers should have total access to not only your cyberspace activity but everything you do.
