Need Protection From Your Cable?
I gave this policy a c+ because this policy may protects us to some extent, however I was not fully aware that the cable companies record our personal infromation. They should make it well known exactly what they are doing with this information they recieve and why they need this data collected.

Shielded Technologies
A- This policy has definetly updated and makes it easier to protect individuals from the internet due to technologies being able to provide an armor around the individuals actions to protect them from certain websites, such as viruses and etc. It massey improved since 1986 because now technogies are able to control a lot of what goes on in the world wide web universe.

Children's Internet Safety
B+ This policy shows how much there is to see online and how little websites are protective against children. Only 30% of websites protect children. I think this policy can improve by creating an entire software only for children and if they try to go on something that is not for children it should immediatly notify the parent and kick them off the computer. With all this media surrounding the world it it very important to protect sites againt children.

Secure Your Safety
A this policy allows people all over the states to use these three digits 911 as an emergency call, so they can recieve help to secure thier saftey. I think this policy is extremely important because people all over the world depend on the police enforcemnt to one phone call.

Consumers' Privacy
A I think this policy is a great policy, it give the consumer some control over how much personal information is release and used in the internet world. Consumers have the ability to what personal data origanizations collect from them.

Social Media For Keeps
A+ This is a great policy because it retricts companies/employers to require employees to have to give them thier social media information so that these companies can investigate through thier social media. That is defenitely envading thier privacy and a lot of jobs use to require our social media information.

Eraser Bill
C- I am not sure as to why this policy is so important . This policy allows a minore to take things off of the internet, but in my opinion if you didn't want it on the internet then why post it? It also prohibits marketing and advertisements that are inapropiate for minors, which i think is the best part of this policy.
