Downloading

     Aspects of downloading from Internet.

     In the XXI century, century of the Internet, people download many diferent things from World Wide Web and it goes without saying. You can download every thing, from maps, photos up to movies, programs. If anyone thought about aspects of downloading? In my opinion, there are 3 basic aspects:

  • braking copyright
  • downloading unwanted things
  • risks of destroying hardware

Rys.1 Download

     Braking copyright is the most basic topic connected with downloading. Pearson, who make photo or film, develope some usefull programs has some rights to this item. There are copyrights. What it is? Wikipedia says that it is a legal concept, enacted by most governments, giving the creator of an original work exclusive rights to it, usually for a limited time.With copyright is connected next term - author's right which says about protection of moral rights.
     When someone is downloading from Internet some attachements, it can be connected with breakingthe law. If you don't pay for downloaded music, films - you brake the copyrights. It is illegal to download in such way, but many people still does it.

     Second aspect says about downloading unwanted things. It is connected with the previous aspect, because it is popular with downloading from diferent,unknown servers. For example you would like to download new songof your favourite band, but in the file you get, there is some film or junk software, called virus.

     Risk of destroying hardware is a consequence of both of following aspects. When you get a file with virus, you can lose all of your data which are stored on your hard disk. But this software can bring to destroy of hardware.Virus can change the way of processing data, what can cause braking the hard disk od burning the motherboard.

Information Privacy

     What is a privacy information?

     Information privacy, or data privacy is the relationship between collection and dissemination of data, technology, the public expectation of privacy, and the legal and political issues surrounding them.
It is everything connected with safety of data in a computer world. Any single data can be commentated and give some informations about pearson.



   Rys.1 Information

 This photo shows important thing about our personal data in Internet. We should avoid giving to public our personal data. We don't know how it can be used for. But how to do it, when everywhere you are asked to write your name, surname, adress, telephon number, e-mail adress and so on? It is not easy to register any account on social networks, internet games, forums.

     Is it a good way to give your real personal data? I don't think so. If you have some doubts watch this video and see what people can now about you.


     In this video there is mentioned one important thing this days. Facebook, actually. The Facebook's society is still growing and many people take it so serious. They upload many photos, videos, opinions which reflects on himself or herself. Good or bad reflect? It comes to estimation of f.e. your future employeer, who looks for some information about candidates to work. If you upload many photos from parties, discos, employeer can think that you are an animal party and you can be often late to work. Your personal photos as you thought before becomes a buisness information.

    I think, that my point of view couses thinking about this problem on your side. It's not straight connected with privacy information, but it can be interesting alternative to many technical aspects. If you don't want to be know for all of your private documents and photos - keep your informations in privat.
     To explore the topic of the privacy I encourage all of you to read this document, which will give all of us the new point of view. It's a bit long, but I think it is worthy to read it.
