Net neutrality

Net neutrality is a issue that just has had a big jump in popularity the past couple of months especially since the NRA repealed the Net Neutrality which making the internet very hectic. The  issue is now that its been repealed the citizens of the US want it back and now that its been a couple of months its fair to say that we need it. The argument of the Net not being neutral is that we don't need complete use since we don't use all of it we don't need it and limit what we can do on it depending on what we buy for internet. My opinion on the topic is the reason why they got rid of it is because the big companies wanted more money than  they were already getting, taking advantage of us.








The main character in the book feed doesn't like the culture and feels very lonely being in in the space station on the moon and the character begins to grow attracted to  this girl and decides to try and get him some of the interstellar romance, But the only thing that he can do is to try and get the girls attention is to try and hang out and invite her to do things with her. And i think the main character is handled as a very awkward and not that outgoing and a shut in and now having him try and change that by talking to this girl really shows improvement.

Technology increases the quality of life by giving us more luxury tools like smart phones and ipods and ipads as well as gaming consoles. And making our daily lives much better and gives us different ways of doing things. The biggest setback of rapid development is the fact that we will rush and forget the most important things and make us forget the importance of why we made these tools, for example technology is like cramming for a test it's great to rush and quickly get these tools and knowledge so fast but once we get comfortable we either will self destruct of forget why we did it and relapse and set us back farther than we originally started. It's not my duty to change where we are going with tech because in this long and vast world of opinions the only thing i can say is the things i believe in and hop someone agrees . But the long term effects of say AI (Artificial intelligence) is the fact that we will rely on the tech than actual people making us as a people less credible.  Also making these artificial human and animals to help us not be lonely isn't helping the distance we have as humans and make us lazy by noty having to do simple daily chores. “In this special issue, The Institute takes a look at the work of several IEEE members concentrating on quality-of-life technologies. Member Kimitoshi Yamazaki and his colleagues have developed a life-size humanoid robot that sorts laundry, sweeps floors, and performs other chores. Member Moritz Tenorth is working on a humanoid for cooking and other household tasks. Member Takanori Shibata has developed a furry, robotic seal [see photo] used therapeutically for patients with cognitive and psychological disorders.”(Monaco,2). The book feed has a problem with technology and lazy thinking, Because they instead of reading to gain knowledge and learn, the citizens in the book would basically download knowledge directly to the brain.
