The inquiry area I have chosen is; Identity. Privacy and Safety. Out of the three inquiries I have chosen this one because as a community we have lost all three things. We don't have our own identity anymore, we don't have any privacy and therefore we are not safe. We have lost these three things mainly because of the new technology that has arose throughout the years, like the internet and social networks.
Even though the rise of the internet has taken away these things, I also believe that as human beings we put ourselves in danger daily. By using social cites such as Facebook and blog cites, we expose information about ourselves that makes it easier for ciber stokers to find us.I'm excited to look more into the subject and to inform others of the dangers that are out there.
I really like how you linked the three words in your inquiry area together. That really is exactly how it is these days. It is scary to think about the next generation, and if they will even have any privacy at all. However, even if someone were to not use any social cites; they still have the risk of being portrayed to the world. Many people post pictures on these websites of people that do not even have an account with a social network. I am interested to see what you find in this inquiry area.
