Ted Talk's

Juan Enriquez explains in his Ted talk how data, tattoos, immorality, and the Greeks are all similar. He shows how tattoos do not have to have any words to be beautiful, interesting, intelligent, and intimate, or just a serious mistake. He then goes on to explain "electric tattoos, not as actual tattoos but as a digital footprint that we lave behind. "cameras can detect and pick up details of you to regnize you as a person". Juan then talks about Narcissus "don't fall in love with your own reflection". Jorge Luis Brogoes- how eles can you threaten other that with death? Juan explains that we are all now threatened with immorality with electronic tattoos today more than ever. After watching this TED talk, I thought it was interesting how he intertwined all these topics that don't relate to each other, but somehow made me see the similarities in how "electric tattoos" are creating immorality.

He tells us how the story of Sisyphus and how he did a horrible thing and was condemned for all time. "Once you get that electronic tattoo, he'll be rolling stones up and down that hill just like Sisyphus for a long time." Atlanta is the greatest runner and nobody would challenge her. If she lost, you could marry her, but if you lost, you would die. One mad raced her and rolled golden apples in front of her, which distracted her. Juan says how when we comment on social median we are getting distracted in life just like Atlanta did.

Catherine Crump explains in her Ted talk how more military weapons are making their way into police units as well as surveillance equipment/NSA-style surveillance equipment. One of the key tracking systems is the license plate readers on the streets, which can convert your plate into machine-readable text. Police departments hang onto these photos of license plates taken throughout the years and are then given to the Federal Government. New York City police have these cameras on their squad cars and can take pictures of all passing cars, which then go into the NYPD's database. Cellphone tower dumps can also be used to show how tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people's data can be taken and used for "surveillance." This is how law enforcement will track people when they use their cellphones. Just as police use high-tech military equipment, they also use this surveillance gear to track people. Catherine explains how just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it's not there, and that it violates a huge civil liberty, a threat to the common American citizen.

Christopher Soghoia- According to Christopher, in his Ted talk, he tells us that our phones and other gadgets were first designed to listen to our daily lives. He describes how Silicon Valley goods are designed to be more difficult to wiretap than standard iPhones. This is because "it's the default peace that matters", companies have made these gadgets the default feature on our phones. He also describes how Chinese hackers compromised Google and Microsoft's systems in 2009. This allowed the authorities to conduct authorized monitoring of these companies. An unidentified group wiretapped the Greek Prime Minister in 2004 using a surveillance device integrated into a phone network in Greece; the hackers were never apprehended. He says the problem is we cannot control who hacks these phones. Yes, we have the ability to wiretap, but so do other countries and even regular people.

Darieth Chisholm- Talks about an even scarier way your info can just be put out into the web. She was a victim of digital violence. With her ex-Hus bused inappropriate photos and messages against her and posted it online. People can use iPhone and laptops to come after you. "Once they have run out of ways to physically hurt you." She says 1 in 25 woman have been impacted by this type of digital violence, and 1 in 10 for woman under 30 years old. Her husband was later arrested by Jamaican authorities and could face up to 10 years in prison. Darieth tells us how we need strict laws in the U.S. to stop acts like this that accrue every day.
