Most of the group discussion were basically from the internet on how society works in making things worse by using the internet. The thing about the internet is that it is world wide . Internet can be used for good things but most people used are for the bad ones. We could really change it into something better , if the morale of the person increase. Example , Facebook is the area where people can get scammed so much due to lack of intelligent of adding their personal things in the profile. I might say even if the government was trying to make it better , it is not by making things stricter but to use another method by planting a good morale behavior for the people . Maybe it would be less terrible than it is already is. We must always think and always be careful whenever we are on the web. People should not take granted on things like this. There are bad people out there who are trying to sabotage our lives. We must always be smart about this and the government could also find those people who are trying to sabotage by analyzing and scanning first. Innocence until proven guilty! and then maybe the people would not complain so much about it.

Reflection for the whole semester  
    I learn that media culture can represent many things. Media culture also gives out the good and the bad. The thing about media , is that it can destroy little things without us knowing. We never able to grasp the situation properly until the truth is revealed. Sometimes even though we know these things about television , internet , newspaper , advertising and many more , we still are the victims of the media. Recently the message that is given out to us manipulates our mind into becoming someone that the society wants but not what we wanted. We have become so engrossed into media , we even act like the media. We are the victims but then we are the cause of this as well. Having the power over the media can make a person manipulate and also sends message to the viewers which makes the false into true. Our generations right now is all about technology. There are no more crayon books or even playing with Barbie dolls anymore. Those things are now outdated. The lecturer taught us a valuable things about media culture.I learned so much in this semester. We can be someone that we wanted to be , not what the society expects us to be. Media is entertaining but it is also dangerous. Never underestimate media culture.

Reflection post!

From the discussion in this blog, I would say that everyone have their opinion in each topic. Most of topics given are related to social networks. As we know social networks are the most hits in internet statistic, so, lots of latest news we should update in order to be safe in using social networks. Not only limited to social networks, we also need to updates about other issues related technology, so that, we can be free from cyber crime.

I love Media Culture subject! Its made me think how does technology change our lifestyle and culture. Technology can be a good thing and be bad things in the same time. For me, media and technology can  represent many things and make human life easier. As we can observed nowadays, most of people become technology' slaves and this is serious matter that we should take note. As media student, I think we need to bring back the media and technology on the right track.

When it Should Be and when it Should Not?

Internet censorship is a control on what public gets from the internet.Its not all in the internet can be seen or read by the public.Who controling? maybe from the goverment or private organization.Internet censorship is like a law nowdays but there lack of rule of law.This is because people always says that internet is the freedom world.Must remember the world with so much freedom is a not control world where more to bad then good.Its should be balance,that is some it can be post public some must be covert.So,when it shoun be control and should not be control?
The Internet user are huge, from the kids untill the elder people they used the internet.When comes to pornography,the items or the post should be control or remove from the web because its give bad respond to the young.But when givin news update of the true story of politics,crime index or something that very important that people need to know and should be,then the internet is the most powerful medium to tell the news and spread it.Dont the scenario goes wrong way,what i mean is when comes to pornography they did not censor it but when came to the true story that should be told they censor it.

Internet Censorship

Internet is a place where is not boundaries had been set for censorship. Even through some of website did create some censorship rules but Internet still having censorship issues as it is never own with a real law of Internet Censorship.

As I was read through an articles about Prince William's naked photos had been separate through Internet, I think media will take advantage to separate personal issues to public as the Internet haven't create law for Internet Censorship. Moreover, unhealthy lifestyles with very low good morale can be shown in Internet as it's doesn't own censorship law.

For my opinion, Internet should own Censorship law, so that, Internet users and media companies would able to copy or reproduce the materials in Internet and personal data of individuals.

Internet Censorship is a Must !

From the article that I was given , I find that Internet censorship is very important in keeping life safe  and private .

Sometimes things that are not supposed to be open to public are exposed by the media due to lack of censorship , not all information are open to just any people . Sometimes things that was not supposed to be seen by little kids are leaked and they are free to watch whatever's on the internet

Also , at times ,  the Media are promoting unhealthy life style , such as advertising beer or pornography . Even though their target are not towards the younger ones but there are not limit  to stop the younger generations  to take a peek or just watch it .

I think internet censorship is very important in promising a better life for the youth when they should be enjoying the outdoor and healthier lifestyle rather than browsing inappropriate sites .

Internet censorship issue

According to this article : http://www.buzzle.com/articles/media-censorship-why-is-censorship-good.html , it is said internet censorship is important to protect the minds of the innocent and also the privacy of a person. If we look in one direction , the person who regulates mostly the internet is partly people from around the world. People who are deemed to sabotage a person's live and also to get publicity. Looking in Prince Harry's naked photos indicates , the privacy has totally fallen over. Censorship must be at a certain degree but does not effects a person's limitation on using the internet. They should censor the things that are very dangerous and even would be the cause of a person's mind to be totally filthy and to protect the content of a person's privacy. I really do think that internet censorship should be applied.

Internet censorship should limit the parts of the internet that is very defenseless like pornographic and even gossip that would ruin a person's lives. They should build a block to certain parts but not all that does not give any danger at all. Internet censorship should build a wall that would protect the peoples privacy and also the mind from being influence by bad things. We should protect the future generations minds from being any more corrupted but the internet censorship should work smart when censoring things that are matter.

Internet censorship is a very big thing that has been discussed for a quite a long time now.Compared to the yesteryears, where privacy is more respected and acknowledged, there seems to be hardly any sense of privacy among the users frequenting the Internet.

The Internet, as many people know, is regulated by many regular people who made up most of the anonymity groups of the Net.It's mainly because of this sense of anonymity that makes many of the user feel a sense of freedom, though some of them decides to take advantage of it to do bad things.

On the subject of Internet censorship, I felt the censorship is necessary to be applied only up to a certain degree. Websites with pornographic content should be censored from the public eye, as they encourages negative influence towards people. This is especially so towards the younger generation, who are more easily influenced by anything around them. Websites containing malicious viruses should also be blocked, so as to prevent the users' computers to be infected. Fake websites disguising themselves as famous sites should be banned to prevent identity thefts and much worse from happening to people.

As a conclusion, I can say that Internet privacy is something very hard to control unless people are willing to change their personalities for the better while Internet censorship is important, though it should only be applied on certain topics and subjects.
