All the impacts of technology are still very unknown. Itll b interesting watching this generation grow up. Will they b smarter? #comu1130t3

We always fear the unknown. With strict regulation these toys can b very beneficial for tracking a child's intellectual progress #comu1130t3

Like most things, smart toys in moderation would be beneficial to children #comu1130t3

Saying there is already too many ubiquitous programs so its too late is a poor argument. We didn't say that about guns in 1996 #comu1130t3

Once I was in an uber and we directed the uber off course and uber HQ in Sydney rang us. I feel safe using this service #comu1130t3

Uber=quick pick up, cheaper, chats, water, friendly drivers Taxi=longer pick up, lines in the valley, no chats What would u pick?#comu1130t3

I've had so many more positive experiences with uber than with taxis and for that reason I try to avoid taxis #comu1130t3

fastcompany.com/3050172/the-tr… Uber failed to detect criminal records of 25 drivers however unlike others they are conducting checks #comu1130t3

Users rate convenience and cost above other categories. This is why the sharing economy is so successful. #comu1130t3

If you are not paying for a product, the product is you #comu1130t3

Facebook and other companies have built these platforms from the ground up. Don't they have a right to keep their work secret? #comu1130T3

Interesting article which shows the power behind algorithms economist.com/news/united-st… #comu1130t3

Terrifying to know companies can manipulate politics if they abuse algorithms. But I guess thats what we signed up for, right? #comu1130t3

We use social media platforms for free so you can expect use of algorithms. It's a business. Companies expect to gain something. #comu1130t3

Revealing an algorithm is like Macca's revealing their recipes. Would that ever happen? Probably not #comu1130t3

If you go to the doctors, you pay for the service. Why should the arts industry be any different? #comu1130t3

@adelice_hines but some people aren't going to the cinema as they can download it for free at home?

Ethics of illegal downloading: I know a lot of people won't illegally download small artists, only successful already rich ones #comu1130t3

An interesting insight into the knock-on effects of piracy: innovationfiles.org/the-true-damag… #comu1130t3

Even if Australians were provided with the same shows as elsewhere I think a large no. of people would still illegally download #comu1130t3
