Cyber Bullying
With cyber bullying, some people watch the people get bullied, while others do the bullying. Cyber bullying can go from one extreme to the next, it can go from a fight with 2 friends to a suicide.It is important to be an up stander rather than a bystander because you can stop the bullying because bullying can lead to some serious stuff.
Journal Entry #7 -Digital Dummies?
Some things I learnt were that there are currently 35 million Blackberry users, 1 billion people own PCs, and $ billion own cell phones.Also i learnt that stress shrinks the brain, and when you text you get stressed. A lot of people are addicted to their phones and there are a lot of sites and books for addictions to these thinks.People think they can multitask but really you cant your just doing many things out of time at a fast speed.People also think that if you want to be included you have to have the latest smart phone.Some observations I made are that people are addicted to their phones and obsessed with technology but it has only been around since the 1980's also that music has shortened our attention span they call it "music ADD". 55% of high school students spend less than 1 hour weekly studying and reading for class, thats more than half!

Inside the Dark web- Journal Entry #6
After watching this documentary, I learned that you can find out anything about anyone on the Internet. I also learned that people can track your phone by your wi-fi connection.The part I liked best was the house that did everything on its own, just by being electrically programmed with a smart phone or tablet I thought it was really cool. I find it surprising how nothing on the Internet that was once anonymous, stays anonymous. I would like to know more about the girl who leaked the documents and put people and the government in danger. I would also like to know more about the website "Silk Road" that sells drugs and anonymously moves money between 2 people. Other observations I made were that everyone can collect data on what they are concerned with and nothing on the Internet is ever private
