I am just a high school student looking to be successful in life. With hard work and perseverance, this is all attainable. Success in my perception is making enough money to live comfortably without the scare of financial struggles.
I took this class so that I can learn more about the power of the internet and technology in regards to business and the world in general. Seeing as the 21st century is a promising time for technological developments, many corporations are taking advantage of such developments and this is why I'm interested in this class. In this semester, I want to understand why technology is so effective in business.
Furthermore,my digital footprint score is 19. This is much higher than my sister's score at 10 points. After reading the information provided by the website about what companies and governmental organizations do with my personal information, I was a bit scared and I knew it was time to change my habits. I noticed that most electronic devices and equipment are monitored by at least one real life organization mentioned in this activity. In order to protect myself, I should stop putting so much emphasis on the usage of electronic devices in my life, especially if I have to provide extremely sensitive information to companies. Instead of sitting down lazily and ordering everything from internet retail companies like Amazon or using email to limit physical interaction with others, it would be safer for me to go to a local mall or bookstore to get what I need and it would be safer to talk to people working or studying with me. This will definitely help me protect myself. Not only will this protect me, but it'll help me cut back from using electronic devices and equipment frequently since I would avoid them to protect my information which is a win-win situation and is what I should do starting from now.
