Legal and Ethical issues

I think that free-access is better than no access because like discussed in this article this may be a better method of perhaps spreading a new film that may not have the means for advertising but that can still trough the use of torrents effectively show their film and perhaps not just film but music as well. Yet at the same time I feel that while doing this one can help out by donating and helping out. I personally purchase everything from movies to music but that is just me.

Security and Privacy

I think that nowadays the issue of our privacy and security is becoming an issue that pertains to everybody because everyone is using the internet and providing some sort of sensible personal information. Without the proper software or awareness of what we are doing we could be left vulnerable to predators seeking our personal information. For instance lets take the Zuckeberg family photo that was filtered through twitter and the article states the photo was not meant for those purposes. Its amazing the way people can get around all these security breaches and create a discomfortable situation to individuals. I feel like we need better control of our privacy and security
