@RebeccaCortes6 @language_ap I completely agree with you Rebecca! I love that you spoke about your personal experiences, particularly at the end of your document, and related it to what this proposal means in your eyes. I laud you for your use of hypophora and the sources you referenced. I thought your

@cemorgan12 @language_ap I wholeheartedly agree - I feel that so much of this is the parents' faults and they should take some of the blame since they could have prevented some of Couch's behavior had they treated him not as a rich kid, but just another person who should face the consequences of their

@Evan_AP_Lang @language_ap Hearing your opinion has expanded my viewpoint; I especially agree with your last sentence. I appreciate you citing another source and found that statistic fascinating. It's true that even without biometrics, our data is still at great rick for being harvested and sold.

@JuliaSklodowska @language_ap I concur, and you worded how I was feeling exactly! As City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty states, widespread biometrics use could enable people to “gather [our data] up secretly and sell it for profit or fear-based activity”. I appreciate you pointing out the risks posed by the
