Module 12 Intellectual Property Rights

              1. What is there for to rejoice if you have the intellectual property on something? Would it be a great instrument to the economic growth of the country? Or you are just the sole beneficiary of the fruits you have reaped from what you have sowed? Explain.

             YES. It means of what I learned, I can share for others by making an intellectual property on something. It would be a great instrument to the society because it can add help to someone who wants to use this kind of materials for their own sake. I can also benefit with it because if they buy and use it, my name always attached to that intellectual property. If it just for me, it means that I am an egoistic person that I can’t share my knowledge.

Module 11 Free Speech Issues

1. Facebook’s marketing director, who happens to be Mark Zuckerberg’s sister, proposed last year that banning online anonymity would help curtail cyber-bullying and Internet harassment. Then-Google CEO Eric Schmidt made a similar observation in year 2010, noting that “privacy is incredibly important” but “not the same thing as anonymity.” If banning is already imposed or will be imposed would this stop annoying comments against someone freely posted by an anonymous FB user? Is this ethical? Is this against the freedom of speech? Support your answer.           

       No, it won’t stop to post bad words, comments that can hurt anyone else, videos that can cause scandals rather it can lessen to post bad comments and words. There are people who use Facebook to burst his feeling. And it is against freedom of speech because it is our freedom to be able to notify those people who have cause bad emotional feelings. There are lots of users on Facebook which there profiles are not as who they are. They are the one who uses names of others to commit unethical words for bullying others.  And also Facebook is not the only social network that can be use for any bullying on the Internet, there are lots like Twitter. The freedom of speech is a way to express emotional feelings. The other way of saying using words and letters of what you believe.

2. Is it ethical to blog both awful and pleasant experiences with your ex-girlfriend / ex-boyfriend? Discuss.

 

            Well, it’s either ethical or unethical because these two words are very different to each other. The awful word is unpleasant which the opposite of pleasant. Sometimes those awful experiences that can be post make an educational benefit to those who follow the blog and the pleasant experience would make a point of what you believe of LOVE. These experiences is in the past and if you let go it by posting it to the blog site, it will lessen your hurt for those unpleasant memories and have a wonderful love for the future boyfriend or girlfriend.
