How ICT can change the world for better or for worse?

"Social media is not about the exploitation of technology but service to community". Simon Mainwaring

      As a student technology and social media is part now of my  life it is very vital now for me because it help me a lot especially in my study. Not only me all over the world are using now technology to communicate with other people especially me because my mother will go in the abroad we are talking with each other using social media. Not like in the past they are using telegram or letters to communicate with there family love ones or there relatives . I' m so glad because of this . Social media can make our life easier.

how ict has canged the world

Community

I.c.t has changed the community, because people are having there houses broken into for there gadgets like Xboxes, ps3s and phones. And people are getting fat by not going out.  , more and more people are losing jobs getting replaced by robots with automated services

Ethical

Ict has changed this because when you are sick you go the doctors and get diagnosed and they keep information about you and if they spread your information to other people that is being unethical as well if you read the terms and conditions on auto trader  this says they will sell your information it has changed like when you sign up to sights like auto trader  on there terms an conditions they say that they will sell your information to other companies and then they will give you junk mail  as well as the government  with trackers and cameras aka the big brother society and they control  how the cameras move and that .

Digital divide

The digital divide is to have access to technology but not everyone can afford it this is also helping people bridge the gap  and in the northerhemosphere  we are privileged so we are slightly advanced this is also improving peoples lives  but there is also  a problem  the people who have mobile phones are getting younger this means there is more problems with theft and in Somali they have food to sell but they can’t  sell them because there is no web service

Legal

This has impacted society by people selling dodgy  goods on eBay ,buying and selling cars that could be stolen and your identity might be stolen . by registering with some site which sell your information , as well  as the playstaion hacker  he used it illegally to disable psn 

Economic

This is changing society by having self service tills and making business more efficient which means them paying less money by no having to buy paper all the time  and this means it is also causing jobs because of the tecnitions having  to come in and fix them if they go rong

Real life example  

My real life example is in enemy of the when they break into will smiths house and place  trackers in his cloths ,watch ,phone  and when he tries running from the law but will smith doesn’t realise that he had trackers planted on him and they made him have bad credit and made his family turn against him
