Chapter 12

Title: “Is Cyberspace Burning?” by ACLU

Quote: “Art on the net is a large, non-profit website that hosts online “studios” where
hundreds of artists display their work.”

Expectations: I expect to get more knowledge on how to apply the given reasons in the
future work and think on how to improve things.

Book Review:
This chapter talks about the internet. How do we use the internet? What do internet
give us? We use internet as the sources of answer, almost everything can be found in the
internet. Internet gives us answers but not all stated in the internet is true, there are some false
information which are provided, once we get something from then net, we have to state the
sources. Blocking software causes us not to be able to use the software itself. In the public
libraries, they block the software because they can find the answer in the internet itself.

Things I have learned:


I learned how important the 6 reasons for self-rating schemes when it comes to our
course. It helped me a lot just by reading the effects of it.

Integrity Questions:
1.) What is cyberspace burning?

2.) What is free-speech online?

3.) What are the 6 reasons why self-rating are wrong for the internet?

4.) What is third-party rating?

5.) What are the problems with the user-based blocking software?
