Learning Objectives: The chapter covers social networking technology's positive societal impact, appropriate online behavior tips, secure password creation, copyright rights, crowdsourcing examples, two-factor authentication, and Creative Commons Copyright.
-
Technology's Impact: Technology can have both beneficial and harmful effects.

-
Collaboration Platforms: Social collaboration platforms change employee workflows by improving communication, and sometimes replacing email. Specific examples include virtual choir projects and other collaborative projects.
-
Filter Bubbles: Filter bubbles are created by algorithms on websites that predict user preferences, and curate content accordingly. This phenomenon impacts the user's intellectual isolation. Specific examples include recommender systems on Netflix.

Threats: Online threats like phishing (social engineering to extract personal data) and password harvesting are dangerous. Specific scenarios like being scammed for money or your account being compromised can result from these attacks.
-
Intellectual Property (IP): Information is considered a product of a creative process, and ownership of the IP has its own rules covering software and digital content on the web.
-
Software License Agreements: These can include different usages with individual and commercial applications. Distribution policies, sharing, and copy requirements, and licenses (like open-source vs proprietary) vary.
-
Open Source Software: This publicly available software raises questions about who pays for the technology, and how companies can profit when the source code is available for anyone.
-
Copyright: Ownership of copyright when creating works like term papers, web pages, and sculptures.

There are specific provisions on copyright use for personal use, fair use, and public domain content.
-
Creative Commons License: A license that allows for sharing, usage, and building on works by other creators. The license includes options like Attribution, NonCommercial, No Derivative Works, and Share Alike.
