Everybody has been through those days. Got screamed at down the school hallway and got called “fat” and “ugly.” Time has now changed, nowadays it could be done in a millisecond and seen by everyone. According to bullyingstatics’s calculations, “over 25 % of average teens have experienced cyber-threats online. More than 1/4 of people have been through this depression and sadness.” Often sharing harmful comments and inappropriate pictures on various websites and all over social media, mostly done anonymously, and that’s called “Cyber-bullying.” It makes me feel super uncomfortable and disgusted. It needs to stop.

Firstly, I must point out that most bullies are just doing it for fun. They hurt other people’s feelings for absolutely so reason at all. Other’s might just want others to feel what they have experienced. They’ll target weaker people and make them feel pain, so the bully will just feel better about themselves. Some might even do it just to get attention from the digital and real world. For whatever reason, they shouldn’t be doing it anyways because its extremely wrong. I have personally never been cyber-bullied, but I’ve definitely been bullied at school since I was young. It made me cry nearly every night and I often thought, “Why me?” Then I took my time to finally realize that the person bullying me just wanted my attention. I just ignored him and he finally stopped messing with me. For some people, it’s not that easy to cope with. It causes massive depression and anxiety for kids, teenagers and young adults.

Not only do young people feel depressed, they also feel overwhelmed, alone and embarrassed. Most of teenagers are cyber-bullied because of their religion, gender, race, relationships and their family. A high percentage of parents have no idea what their child is facing, just like my parents a couple years ago. So if you’re a teacher or parent, here are some signs from resources.uknowkids.com that a child is being cyber-bullied. He/She will try to avoid school. They’ll get anxious on the internet on the internet. Having trouble eating just like I used to have. I would have trouble eating, especially at the school cafeteria because that’s where everyone including the bully could see me. I even used to fake my fevers and my teacher would call my parents to take me home. It only happened a few times though. That’s how bad I felt every single day for at least 3 months in grade 6.

Additionally, teens who share their identities and thoughts online are the biggest targets. People shouldn’t share their very personal secrets and pictures. It has caused death to thousands of teen and young adult’s lives. Based on my research on various websites, Amanda Todd, a 15 year old Canadian girl got blackmailed by a stranger online. She got exposed for child pornography and committed suicide. Tyler Clementi, an 18 year old senior, he got caught kissing a man on webcam that his roommate hid in his dorm. The video went viral and the word got spread everywhere until Tyler couldn’t take it anymore. He lost his life by jumping off a bridge. It has happened too often and people still cause this sickening scenario. None of these innocent lives should be taken away by some cruel souls behind a screen.

Lastly, Cyber-bullies and bullies should be stopped. They make people feel extremely bad about themselves and they feel not good enough for the society. There has been more than enough lives taken away by these bullies. We should all help and warn the society to stop bullying in general because this is getting out of hand. We all need to help stop this permanently.

When you look at your phone, you will see so many applications. There are apps which you use daily, for example, Google, Facebook, and YouTube. However, some people do not get a chance to access to those useful worldwide apps. Chinese are not allowed to use them. In China, there is a law taking citizens’ freedom by censoring those applications. It is wrong to take other people’s freedom. I personally disagree with what China does to their people.

China created their own programs for their citizens to use. The main apps are Banjul – instead of Google – WhatsApp, and Youku Tudou. This means when you go to China, some worldwide apps will be blocked. On the other hand, there is a benefit for China not letting their people use those worldwide apps. Money in their country will not leak to other foreign companies. Some people agree with the censorship for the sake of Chinese companies’ profit. The government or private companies get money from their own citizens. Although they get money, it is not enough to run their businesses. They also need money from other countries too. In the end, the country does not get any benefit from forcing people to only use their applications. In fact, Chinese wants to be free, as you can see from the number of Chinese citizens leaving their country. They save money and move their household to somewhere else, such as USA, Canada, and Thailand.

Owning to banning, Children and adults do not get to access various information. It is difficult to study if the information is not worldwide. People will only be educated in the way of their country or only know whatever their country wants. One of the most difficult things to study is languages. You could see that some Chinese cannot speak English or other languages at all. It seems very miserable to have less chance to access to valuable knowledge. Lacking assorted knowledge causes less creativity in Chinese. They will not think outside the box because they only know what their country teaches, unlike other people who get a chance to see many creative ideas.

Another reason is lacking connection. Chinese cannot have online friends or even keep in touch with their foreign companions. They will be shy or afraid to have friends. Some Chinese do not make friends at all. They are only in a group in which Chinese. This will be a big problem for them when there is not another Chinese. Some foreigners think it is rude not to make friends or talk to anyone. Another case is when one of their family members is in another country and some things bad happen to that person. No one can contract their family in China or can contract but it could be too late for them to help.

Forcing people to only use their products is a bad thing.The government prevents leaking money. Without money from other country, it is not enough to run their companies. The main reason is lack information. People don’t get to have various of information to study. another reason is to lack of connection between Chinese and foreign friends and their families which live in another country. Those reasons dispel that banning is not good. China should desist banning applications such as Google, YouTube, and Facebook. Otherwise, the people who get taken away their right to be free and do not have their right to choose what is good for themselves so they run away from their country. These are the reasons why people do not respect the government anymore. China should be more open about social media.

Now we are in a new age. Not only mass media can tell information, but everyone can know information and can send or tell opinion or feeling to social by Social Networking Service (SNS). There are a lot of SNS such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.. There is data which says 40% of worldwide people are using those Social media regularly. The popular function of those SNS is to upload pictures to SNS easily.  Mostly they upload a picture of themselves or other people. This is the important part that we have to care because pictures (or video) can say a lot about someone who is in pictures. And once you upload pictures on SNS, pictures will be spread worldwide so everyone can see it. That is a problem! There are some people who dislike or hate that their faces are online and spread out worldwide. So there is a right which is justified by low. It is called ”Portrait Right”. I think this special right can protect us and not block freedom of speech.

In Japan, and the USA or other country ar supporting a right of protecting your own privacy. Mostly it includes a Portrait Right. It is the right that no one can take your picture, draw your picture, upload to online without your permission. This right is made because of your privacy which means your profile and appearance is kind of your property and it must not be stolen or used for other’s profit. So you will be protected from the case that your picture is on the website that you don’t know or you hate. It definitely makes your reputation safety, isn’t it? 

Even some people think that portrait right is bad because they cannot enjoy SNS with pictures and videos. but I think this right is not the thing that restraint an activity on SNS. You can ask them who is in your picture whether they are OK with that they are in your picture. That’s it. Or how about if you took your selfie picture but somebody else is in your picture accidentally? The answer is in court. when the judge decides that picture or videos are violating the portrait right of someone or not, the judge loo social effects and consequence of him, as well as the action of him in pictures, place, the purpose of taking that picture, picture’s quality and necessity of picture, very carefully. So it doesn’t always block to enjoyable of SNS with pictures.

Here is a case that is judged that invite the portrait right. A man took a woman’s picture and upload it on Bulletin Board System(BBS kind of SNS) but she doesn’t know about it. When she notice that her picture is on website,the picture is already released.She was wearing a clothes which has sign said “Sex” at the chest.You can imagine how people think about her when they saw her on BBS.She sent it to court.The court said “This picture definitely damaged her social status. So her Portrait privacy is finally protected. So I can say that Portrait right is great protection for your social consequences.

There are country that doesn’t have Portrait right. Maybe it is because of culture or personality of citizen. I think every country must have this low. Because the world is changing to be one by the development of technology. For conclusion, all of us should know the risk of spreading your or other’s information. The portrait right can protect you from your case that your appearance is used or released without your permission.

Since its founding in 2004 by harvard university student for over a decade facebook’the largest and most powerful online social network in the world ,has formed facebook . At the beginning,it was just a space to exchange information between university student (Daniel zero,2013).But later, the online social network has change. And develop until having a role to connect to people, both close to each other in the world, can easily communicate with each other . Online social network become a new area that is quickly popular for meeting appointment. Ask for raw materials and exchange ideas without being subject to location or time constrains .In addition to meeting current pinions.Facebook is also another name that influences the behavioural change of people in society both in psychology and sociology (Madalena David,2011). One of the behavioural changes that the author is interested in using online social networks. This article comes from observing the current behavioral and social conditions . Study in conjunction with the criminality theory in criminology And intended to be presented in a non-academic form The main objective is to set up an issue to invite to discuss. Together pondering for the right approach In order to continue to use the internet in a creative way.

How many time when we open computer or phone and get in the social network. Expect for meet friend or relative, and we can see other people activity both existing or not in friend list. these activity are different like some friends are sad and other friends are happy.

In some country they ban facebook because they make problem in country like north korea,they block all social media because they don’t want to have social media and they want to live by themselves.

In social media people believe who is successful person will be in social media, and they are reject social media guideline a lot of these people most are use cyber space to commit an offence such as hacking, cyber fraud, cyber harassment and cyber impersonating.

In my opinion I think it’s have advantage and disadvantage, in advantage side is we can see new news or something we like , in disadvantage side is another people can peek our activity,I think facebook or another app such as IG , Youtube , twitch should add more fiction like before post facebook have to check that is illegal or not .Once the villain has been capture they should b din the jail all life because if we release the villain I think they will back to make mistake.

The world is moving into the Digital age. I think there’s no one to refuse that many digital media There is no effect on our life in the 2019 . The various logical media has come out in many ways, making it a role in the lives of everyone life .People’s lifestyle are changing with digital flows. It makes use of the Internet in many ways, giving me the question, “How can we use the media to make it helpful” and “what does the digital media affect our lives?”

The Internet had increased speed. Read new information and everything comparable to a 24-hour library, which allows  each other to exchange idea everything has the opportunity to make us get wrong information or inconsistent communication that we must to be careful before we use some information that form Internet or sharing information.

In the era of technology world there are many information from many websites for us to choose. And which website is the best and the most true.Therefore, we must consider the use of data, receiving data and forwarding information to others.  By which we have to check from the website and the source of the trust page  It will give us the right information.  But if we do not check the information before we used result in us receiving wrong information  Why is our understanding and communication of information wrong?  Therefore, considering the media before use is the first thing that must be done when thinking about data to prevent errors. Such skills are a very important in becoming a digital citizen. We call it digital literacy.

Now our world comes into the digital age. There are many advantages and disadvantages in the view of using the Internet from many people. If we use those things in the right way is useful, but if we do not how to use those media, various negative effects will have a lot to come. In conclusion, digital is caused by many perspectives, but we will choose how to use it correctly.

Apple and Google are like Coca Cola and Pepsi, McDonald’s and KFC, and Canon and Nikon. I think we all know that businesses are competing against each other, not only for money but for fandom too. Apple and Google have been improving their devices in each passing day to win over the competition, with iOS and Android, but even though Apple is the best they’ve ever been, Android still offers a far better performance than Apple’s limited lineup. Here are the 4 reasons why…

The first reason is choice, because there are so many options when it comes to devices ranging from super cheap to ultra expensive and everything in between.Want a phone that focuses on a good camera? NO worries. Need one that has a long battery life? Got you covered.There’s an Android phone for everyone out there and it’s nice to have options when it comes to looking for a new device, rather than picking a newer version of an older model.

Another reason is customization. You could say that your phone is now so important that it’s actually an extension of who you are, your most personal item, so to speak,so being able to customize the entire experience on an Android device to fit your personality is a wonderful thing, and a great feature in a product.

A third reason for choosing Android over Apple is Google assistant.This certainly feels like one of the more powerful ones out there. Conservations with AI in general are still a little awkward, but the assistant can answer you using your previous questions to keep the conversation going. It’s isn’t only on the phone, it’s also now on Google home devices.

Yet another reason is value.Cost-effective and good quality phones are what we all want. You can pick up a large screened Android phone that does near enough everything you would want it to. You can even spend a big more to get a good-performing device.The good thing is most companies won’t make you pay extra to get the full features of a device, unlike Apple.

In conclusion, Android has more options to choose from and it’s worth the price.Their features are great and I recommend it to you. Some people think that Apple is better, but you should know that the best platform for you depends on you.

Privacy is important to all of us. We all have things that we want to show or to brag about but we also have things that we would rather hide from others. You can say that those things are our secrets. Besides, not all secrets are bad. Some might just be embarrassing or too personal for us to reveal but what if some are really bad and can cause a lot of problems? And I am not talking about a tiny little problem, I’m talking about big serious problems that can be dangerous to all of us and the country itself. If that’s really going to happen then nobody would have known about it except for the government because normal citizens are not capable of spying and looking at other people’s personal information. In fact, spying on other’s personal information is illegal so that means you can’t actually do it if you’re not in any kind of agency. Not only that normal citizens don’t have access to spy on others but that also means they can’t expose anyone or anything which will not cause a single problem. I also can’t think of any reasons why the government would expose or reveal our secrets if they’re not a big concern to them.

Moreover, these surveillance acts were made to protect everyone. In fact, there are a few laws that support government surveillance and for example, one of the laws on surveillance is called “FISA”. FISA is shortened for The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and based on ACLU, it also states that “The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is the law that governs eavesdropping on agents of “foreign powers” within the United States, including suspected foreign terrorists.” That proves that these laws and government surveillance acts have the purpose to prevent and defend any kind of crimes that may happen either at anyplace or anytime. But on the other hand, Government Surveillance could be illegal too, if they are not being used properly. And considering they can be illegal too, I believe that when they used it in the wrong way, we can always find justice in many many ways because, at the end of the day, there’s only one truth even if there are many ways to prove it.

Above all of that, Government Surveillance does actually help to catch criminals and prevent some crimes. For example, the case of Najibullah Zazi who planned on bombing the subway in New York City but got arrested before he even had the opportunity to do it because the NSA tracked down the email that he sent to an al-Qaeda operative in Pakistan. Other than that, The Register UK has a full article on US Internet Surveillance and also includes a document about it. Its article states that “On page four, the document gives some examples of where the use of Section 702 has proven effective: gathering insights into the minds of high-level Middle Eastern government ministers; checking up on sanctions; identifying both terrorists and terrorist sympathizers and alerting other governments to them.” From the information above, I assume that the government spies in positive terms. And even if The Register UK’s article doesn’t support my opinion, it also doesn’t say that the whole Internet Surveillance thing is all bad. It only pointed out some good reasons why government surveillance is bad, which I totally understand because I know everyone has their own opinions and we all have the rights to say what’s on our minds.

Lastly, I think that the whole “Internet Surveillance” thing is not a big deal to normal people. I admit that some of our personal information is not entirely personal but it’s like exchanging privacy for our own protection which I think is not that bad for us, except that you’ve done something illegal then that’s another situation. I just want to say that if you don’t have any guilty illegal crimes, then you shouldn’t be worried about your privacy.

In this blog, I will present what happens about YouTube censorship, and what is the effect on other people? In detail, this blog will tell about YouTube has been under pressure from the people to remove things such as, violence, sexual and copyright video content. Therefore, YouTube has a lot of problems to solve. Government of USA pressure YouTube every way to remove impolite videos out. But, YouTube can’t resolve all there problems because YouTube has a lot of videos, so it is impossible to resolve in a short time. However, YouTube faced the possibility of being blocked in some other countries. Since I was young, I’ve heard about YouTube censorship from other people. While YouTube is cooperating with Government, they remove violence, sexual and copyright videos to prevent and reduce people from watching and publishing videos that is against YouTube’s policy.

In 2006, the Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers, and Publishers had succeeded in withdrawing from the Digital Millennium Copyright Art lawsuit. There were more than 30,000 pieces of content being cancel from impeachment. Soon after, Comedy Central complained of copyright infringement. Therefore the content is removed from the platform of YouTube, causing many countries to put pressure on YouTube about this and want YouTube to be able to monitor data effectively before publishing information on the internet.

After Youtube faced many problems, they changed the policy to make it better, so they instituting three strike rules for community guidelines violations. YouTube forgives the offender for the first time. If doing again, YouTube will suspend user. And will sue for copyright infringement. In doing so, YouTube has acted as an official judge regarding suitability.

In the past few years, YouTube has faced many criticisms because of many the excessive content of violence that cannot be effectively resolved. On the other side, YouTube uses a lot of money to remove violent content. In 2016, the company added automated systems to the screening program and they announced plans to embed violent content. After many incidents of damage are solved YouTube’s influence has been more proactive. After the deaths of many children who participated in the “Tide Pod Challenge”, YouTube stated that it was trying to remove the videos of people eating the laundry pods. After shooting at a serious school in Parkland, Florida, and YouTube has banned the gun sample videos and content that promotes gun sales.

Today, companies like YouTube face difficult challenges. They are under pressure from various governments to remove various content and any decisions they make with censorship will lead to further censorship without a doubt. But this is something that leaders have failed and why technology, which is a company effort to play neutral, has been accepted by YouTube, whether it is the policy makers and management of companies that like it or not. So what are the decisions that reflect the value and value of those who decide and enforce policies for those things? Remains to be seen.

People are finding things more and more offensive. Getting offended is totally normal and is when people say something or do something that makes you angry. These people who are getting offended at most things are called “The snow flake generation or these social justice warrior”. These people are even going so far as to campaign for people that may have never ask for their help or opinion. These social justice warrior can get offended at almost everything even if the subject is barely offensive

To start of I want to say that I fully support social justice, but I don’t support the act of taking social justice too far to the point of ruining someone’s life. In this day and age something that is barely offensive can become the worst thing someone have ever heard of I think the reason is just because they think they should be offended or just following how other people would think. So these people would proceed to attack them on social media. This could even destroy someones career. Most things that are offensive enough to make it to the news from my opinion and with context, a lot of them are just jokes and never meant to be taken seriously, because they are just making jokes something to be laughed at if you get offended by a joke I think you shouldn’t be make a big deal about it. To the point of destroying someones career

People may think this is a good thing and I agree but not completely. From my perspective it has both good and bad effects to modern day society, such as it helps people through hard time such as internet bullies or oppressed group of people, but for some it does the complete opposite, like comedians who got in trouble because their jokes are considered offensive are now making their jokes as offensive as possible. But to the other group of people who are scared to voice their opinion to the internet because they could get attacked on the internet. So this social justice thing may help someone it has a great disadvantage which is it takes away people’s freedom of speech.

One of the many overly offended happening. Is when a Scottish youtuber by the name of Mark Meechan made a video training his dog to do the Nazi salute when it hears the word gas the Jews because his girlfriend thinks everything the dog does is cute. Even though he only made a joke, though the joke could be considered. He still went to court he was charged with hate crime and fined for 800£. The jury said what mark did wasn’t just a joke but actually a Nazi propaganda, but what they’re doing is taking away mark’s freedom of speech which is one of the many things the Nazi did. Although this was not exactly a tasteful joke, I think going to court and getting charged with hate crime is too extreme of a punishment for this scenario. something good did come out from this. Which is the massive support Mark got and that raised awareness of overly offended people.

I don’t think it’s wrong for people to get offended it’s a perfectly normal reaction when someone says something that doesn’t please you, but I think it’s wrong when you take your feeling of getting offended too far. From my perspective I think that whatever anyone says someone out there will find it offensive for example I find people that drink instant ice tea slightly offensive but that doesn’t make it okay to ruin someones life.

Why country blocked youtube ? Why did they blocked? Why youtube blocked some users and why some country blocked youtube?So for the first question country that blocked youtube is china.China con not force them to filter content for Chinese users.

China also blocked google and blocked by Chinese authorities and another reason that china blocked youtube because it present a threat to the Chinese government, china blocked youtube in 2009. youtube is the first social media that got blocked in china. Maybe youtube post something bad about china, china had blocked other social media to examples youtube about this paragraph ,google, twitter and maybe some other too. Mostly are U.S.A, apps are from western country.

Why youtube blocked some users because some users post bad videos, illegal acts or some hate speech and youtube deleted some of the users videos because of the same reason. I think youtube deleted some videos because some users post inappropriate stuff, Youtube blocked some country examples North Korea and youtube is blocked in North Korea because of the country’s laws regarding the internet nd its accessibility , maybe more country. In the world map the country that got previously blocked is venezuela in south America,

There are more country that blocked youtube like Afghanistan ,On September,12,2012, Youtube was blocked in Afghanistan due to hosting the trailer to the controversial film about Muhammad, Innocence of Muslims and they unblocked youtube on December 1,2012. In January 2007, Youtube was sued by Brazilian model due to the fact that website hosted a video record which she and her boyfriend have sexual intercourse on a Spanish beach, took a video by paparazzi. I think this is bad because no one want to get shot by someone and got post in social media but she is wrong too, She do things that should not do in public place.

Germany blocked youtube in 2009 until 2016, the blocking of youtube videos in Germany on copyright grounds was part of a dispute between youtube and the society for musical performing and mechanical reproduction.

So the summary is some country blocked youtube and youtube blocked some country because every country have their own reason and youtube have their reason too, This is the one reason some users post bad videos, illegal acts or hate speech. Their are many people watching youtube and if child or kids watch it and they will learn it , its bad for everyone. This is the reason why youtube need to deleted some videos because some are bad and some are copyright. Anyone who have your own channels don’t put hate speech or copyright , if you have in your channels maybe you need to change but if you have too many .MAYBE YOUTUBE WILL CLOSE YOUR CHANNELS.
