My
first annotation took an opposite stand from the Facebook founder’s talk. And I
gave several examples from my resources such as the craving advertising system
to support my argument. In my annotation 2, I will proof how Facebook may
interfere our life and privacy.
You may
think that one shouldn’t put information on Facebook if they do care about
possibilities of lacking privacy. These people hesitated the destructive power
of this social website, and considered it as a virtual world that do nothing with
the reality. But according to the resources, you are actually exposed to the
danger ever since you had a Facebook account. Strangers can reach your Facebook
account by one single photo, and then collect personal information to figure
out one’s life. They can even get your ID numbers through specific government
website!
In this film, Alessandro Acquisti performed several
interesting experiments. And there are two of them worth discussing with our
topic. The first one is mentioned above, which indicates how Facebook might
leak our personal information even from the most negligible part. This
experiment enlarges the potential problems of Facebook-an indirect
way to invade our privacy. The second experiment links your Facebook’s friends with
the advertising companies. Acquisti suggests a new promoting way. The advertisements
can mix two faces of your most intimate friends into one, creating and
replacing the salesman face that you won’t recognize but familiar with. By
doing so, you may have greater chances to pay for their products. Although it
seems a little funny and ridiculous, one should admit that this kind of
advertisement will catch you at the first sight.
Acquisti throws out a very convincing point at the end of the speech,
saying that “if somebody told you they don’t care about privacy, then consider
that they are not allowed to care about their privacy.” So if you do think
privacy matters, you are responsible to stand for your right of it. Do not
undervalue the impact of a single photo. You might get into trouble if your personal
data is used by people with bad intention.
In conclusion, we should ask
Facebook to return to their very beginning purpose, that is to build a more
open and transparent world in the future, in which “open and transparent” do
not equal to being naked to the public. We have witnessed the transformation of
Facebook in recent years, and now we shouldn’t turn a blind eye to their
disrespect manners of invading privacy. Based on the mutual trust and business ethics,
I suppose that Facebook should take care of our privacy more carefully.
i agree that fb should take care our privacy, too! i like your intonation, but it will be better if u can look at your note less often
回覆刪除Recently, I started to set some of my posts from PUBLIC to FRIENDS.
回覆刪除It seemed that setting the posts PUBLIC would get more LIKEs which is delightful, but it was really dangerous if somebody stalk you, he can know where you go immediately.
So I agreed with you.
There is no secret on the internet.Although Facebook have to protect user`s privacy, it doesn`t have to take the whole responsibility. The main reason why people like Facebook is because it satisfies people`s curiosity to other`s privacy. What`s important is that the users should seriously consider the question, and protect their personal informations.
回覆刪除I agree with you that Facebook should take care of our privacy. After all there should still be some privacy for us even on Facebook. I can see that you are well prepared for your presentation. You delivered a strong speech in a confident tone. I like how you provide various evidences from related sources, because it makes your point more persuasive. Also when you are presenting your topic you tend to use a lot of interaction with the audience, which is excellent because it shows that you are well prepared.
回覆刪除I'm agree with your attitude. Although Facebook is an open way to let others know you, it still needs privacy. Many people are stolen personal data because of FB. I think FB should strengthen the protection of privacy.
回覆刪除You have two clear point to support the argument. Like what you say, although Facebook is convenient, which makes you easily know what your friends are doing, we should think about the risks it may bring.
