Discuss your thought on identity and security in a new blog post incude the five terms on the left. if you dont know what they are then research them. [web 1.0, web 2.0, big brother, little brother, participatory panopticon]
Internet today ties the world of computers too tightly today. From the old web 1.0 to web 2.0 of today, someone can see relatively everything a person searches and looks at over the internet. A persons security on the internet is very minimal and goverments can have almost a Big Brother effect on the population. Always being able to watch a persons every step at all times.
Now with Patriot Act, the people of the U.S. have a view of participatory panopticon upon them. They don't know if they are constantly being watch or if everything they are doing is going unnoticed. The people using the internet have no idea how safe the internet really is. We could be constantly watched and if were are wouldn't that mean if anybody could find anything about us. Even with security becoming better for the people who use the internet, hackers are advancing just as fast.
