Unit 14 M3

A mechanism that has been put in place to stop your human interaction is Skype. Skype excludes you from going out more, but if you own a webcam, you can actually speak face-to-face with people! If you have a microphone and a webcam then you can speak normally without typing, it's just like going out, but really you're not, as you can still see face-to-face!

A mechanism that has been put in place to improve data security is passwords and locating devices. If a thief managed to get hold of your phone and you have a password it will be very difficult for them to get in especially as with some phones it locks after a certain amount of tries this happens on blackberries and iPhones, you will then have too get it unlocked at a phone shop, which costs extra money. On the Iphone you can download tracking devices so if your phone gets lost you can track it from another phone and get it back!

To stop people using their phones whilst driving you have bluetooth so people can talk and answer the phone  using voice activation.
To stop people downloading from dodgy sites, these sites have been blocked.

UNIT 14 P6

P6
A way that technology has affected human life is communication, you no longer need too go and find the person you need too speak too, a simple text and they know. This affects your social life as some people live over technology and don't go out.

A way that technology has affected law is data security. Pictures and videos get leaked. Texts get leaked your phone can easily get stolen without you noticing, and your data can get accessed. The thief can do what he likes with the phone and it can be very tricky too obtain again. People use there phones in cars which is illegal and also download illegal music and games with it.

D2 UNIT 14

Personally my most favored method is too send it too someone through a text or message it too someone using a secure website privately. This could be something like Direct Messaging on twitter. Or inboxing someone on facebook. If i had the decision i would send it too someone through a text message simply because its easier and more simple. It's quick and you need too make sure that you trust this person as they will have that text, once you send it, you cannot get it back. Make sure this is the correct number aswell! - You do not want your details being sent too the wrong person!

P7 UNIT 14
