Research Day Response.

The project that i watched was Melissa Rodriguez' video on the Sustainability of old westbury. Her documentary was started with a campus history, and morphed into a description of what the administration is doing to make the campus more eco-friendly.

Net Neutrality.

Being hardwired into the world is a necessity these days. In the world where instant information is at your hands, being the last to know, is being left in the dust. If you can thrive without information, please tell me this way so i can be ignorant for the rest of my life. I do make a small moment of each day without the constant barrage of information to sit, and reflect, but it is small, and timed only for my own relaxation.

Net Neutrality is a sticky issue to contend with. Left with a choice between the corporate world and the government gaining control of the internet leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth. the corporate world will sterilize the world, only for more access, leaving niche markets very expensive and hard to recieve. while Government control will begin to fine and police every website looking for content that might offend the general masses. While i believe in democracy of the people, there are way to many loopholes that can be used to generate false numbers on either side for the government to control, making it a sinkhole for taxpayer money. while the peoples content is destroyed, and sanitized for mass consumption.

Role Of Survelance.

In this world i have come to accept the fact that we are now watched more, than we aren't. And we enjoy it most of the time. In my average day, i pass at least 50 cameras that i notice, and countless that i don't. The Highway's are watched by the news companies, the stores i frequent are covered with cameras to catch me if i steal, the red lights have cameras in them to make sure i don't run them. I am not happy about it, but i have come to accept it, when the riots come i'll be in the sewers with the mole people.
