Source Evaluation

I felt this source was very informative on the new rules that facebook was trying to enforce. It was up to date on the changing issues regarding whether or not the information users post on facebook will be owned by facebook. It also uses the direct statments used by facebook to show what rules they are trying to enforce, and why they are doing it. The source was detailed and it simplified the statements facebook made so more people can understand what the rules will do.

I felt this source was very informative on its point of view. I didn't understand a chunk of it since it assumes that the reader has background knowledge of human readable deeds. The blog could be more accesible to others if they were to go into detail

I felt this was a very interesting article. It shows the danger of technology and how easy it is for other people to take your information and private files. The article is also interesting since it shows the consequences for abusing technology to invade others privacy.

  1. Ok, but was the last article authoritative? How about the ideas. You are on the cusp of writing an opinion, but it doesn't really happen here. Sorry, no points.
