EOTO PRESENTATIONS WHAT DID I LEARN

-
For the past EOTO presentations I learned a lot about a few topics that really stuck out to me that I enjoyed learning about. They  were Total Information Awareness cont, Smith- Mudnt Act, Five eyes these are the things that really stuck with me through out the presentations.  Total information Act- While looking for potential terrorist threats is a positive method to their program, it gave the U.S. government the right to spy on all citizens, not just the bad ones, this means that all information that could be found online could be seen and used by the government, This included things along the lines of credit card purchases, web browsing history, bank deposits, license registrations and more, while this did have its benefits it did overall give the government way too much power.  Another topic I learned about was the Smith-Mundt Act this allows the access to programs though BBG such as Voices of America, Programs can still not eb created for the U.S. but now the American’s can have access upon request, the pros are global connectivity, higher transparency and government funding and the cons are targets a specific audience, influences on public opinion. This was originally passed in 1949 which prohibited the government to broadcast propaganda materials domestically, not restricted if American’s wanted to get this information on their own, this did take time during the cold war, William Fulbright played a key role in the legislation, stated that tax payers should not be paying for the domestic propaganda, was created to separate the U.S. from the soviet union where propaganda is normal government activity. Voice of America influence was created in 1942 MULITMEDIA company, government programming to discuss the U.S. in foreign countries and this fall sunder the broadcasting board of governances.
The Five Eyes the FVEY tells each other everything but withholds information from other alliances but will share with other for a case by case basis, 9 eyes, 14 eyes NATO, advances in technology have made it easier for them to spy on civilians, not controlled by the government, gives them the power to spy over citizens of member states, heightened the surveillance if online activity. This is an intelligence alliance, this is the collections of information of military or political value, compromised of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United states of America. Bound by the UKUSA agreement the UK-USA agreement for cooperation in signals intelligence, military intelligence and human intelligence. This was created after ww2, this is the largest spying network in history, most of what goes in doesn’t seem to be known.

Crystal Ball, Thoughts on HPU

-
A sparkling rainbow of colors swirled within white-gray fog.   The fog began to part.   There within that crystal ball, my future lay before my eyes.   So many times this fall of sophomore year I’d been asked What do you want to be when you grow up?   A glimpse of what would be aligned perfectly with the vision I’d had for myself.   It’s a beautiful autumn day, not a cloud in the sky, but the air crisp with the promise of colder days to come.   With excitement and anticipation, my footsteps make noise as they stir up the fallen leaves.   It’s my second year at the High Point University (where did the time go?), and I see myself on my way to the physical therapy clinic on campus, the school of communications and the long trek to the school of business....dreaming about what senior year with the crisp fall leaves will bring me.    I know myself.   Through years of soccer, I’d been on the receiving en...

Helicopter Parenting is it a Modern Day Issue?

I think in this modern-day society we should seek out more emphasis on parenting this is a very important aspect of human life it has a big impact on how you act, and effects the person you are today. Based on looking at the chapter 5 notes the different parenting styles are all on the personality of the parent and what specifically what benefits the kids more. Warmth and Control are two very important aspects of parenting and raising a child and seeing how your parents mold into the person they are in twenty years. These qualities used with these parenting styles can tell you who is more in power, who is too lenient, who is loved, who doesn’t care, who has the perfect mix of strict and fun. Looking at these particular styles has immediately 2 things that jump out at me. One if you had asked me this question a few years ago I most definitely would have a different answer on how I was raised, and Two I look back and see that my parents made most of the right calls when I was growing up...

Diffusion of Innovations is the explanation of how, why, and at what rate do these new ideas of technology spread. In the book Diffusions of innovations written by: Everett Rodgers published in 1962, in this he states. He also argues the point of four main elements influencing the spread of a brand-new creative idea, diffusion is the process by which innovation is communicated and the innovation has to be widely adopted in order to be self-sustain and reach the point of critical mass. The main. Categories of people are Early adopters, innovators, early majority, late majority and laggards. This concept of diffusion of innovations was first studied by the French in the late 19 th century. The five stages in the decision innovation process is the Knowledge, persuasion, decision (reject or accept) implantation, and the confirmation. The first step is when an induvial is first exposed to the innovation but has no idea about any information on it has not been driven, ins...
