Q Controlling information privacy, freedom and security is a balancing act. Prior to completing this week's discussion board, please review the following: • Behind the Great Firewall of China (Links to an external site.) - What do the Chinese people feel and do about Internet censorship in their country? • Internet Censorship (Links to an external site.) - How is censorship done on the Internet? • Orwell's Nightmare: The NSA and Google Big Brother Meets Big Business (Links to an external site.) - Has the most powerful technology company in the world and the largest clandestine spying agency in the world joined forces? • The Internet of Things Is Wildly Insecure and Often Unpatchable (Links to an external site.) - Does everything have to be connected to the Internet? Are our "smart" devices really that smart? In the Week 4 discussion forum, post your response to the following questions: • What is meant by a SICK country and what do they have in common? • Michael Anti in the video Behind the Great Firewall of China stated that the Chinese government and Chinese internet users are like the cat and mouse metaphor. What did he mean by that? • Do you think China, Iran and other countries have the right to censor or control Internet content in their own countries? • Does the United States government censor Internet content? • What about censorship of pornography and hate speech? • Do you think Google and the NSA are in “cahoots”? • Are we too dependent on the Internet? • What is the “Internet of Things” (iot)? Is it a good thing? Is there a dark side to it? • Research an iot security breach and tell the class about it. List references. Please title your thread "Week 4 Discussion/ [Your Name]".
