Is it safe out there in cyber space!?

Wouldn’t the cyber world be a lot nicer without SPAM? I think it will be nice already if we have a day without junk mail. As much as 75% percent of the junk mail that clogs our computer has come from the hosting service McColo Corp., in San Jose. They were accused of providing servers for criminal activity and to distribute child pornography. McColo has also been linked to identity theft and stolen bank and credit card account information. Are they one the fewest in the cyber world? **** no!

The spammers and cyber criminals are so fasinating in a way that you would never come to believe. They use trojan horse programs to sneak into personal and corporate computers then link them to send spam or worse ( VIRUSES!!). An innocent screen saver can link a computer to a spam network without the user knowning. Cyber world is suppose be the safest place for us to explore and generate business on a daily basis. Unfortunately, there’s already theives/robbers outside the wires( in the real world) but what seems like now there’s a lot more thieves mopping online. It is going to influence our children /students dramatically since technology is what they rely on to expand their knowledge.

Can antiviral softwares be any help? Maybe but not really!! Cyber criminals doesn’t partner up with stupid folks with basic computer skills, they shake hands with PROFESSIONlAL HACKERS, people with master degrees in software tech. Not only will effect the mind of young children in danger but it will also do harm as a whole. People and businesses will be too terrified to work around the cyber world. No one will want to take advantage of the advancement in speed and international communication. We should diffinitely as a state regulate and put effort into yanking these morbid servers out of cyber space. Just like anything else that the government inspect and investigate on a yearly or monthly basis, the cyber world inspection needs to have the same attention and strict regulations.

ALERT! FRAUD!

Based on an article I read from a colleague’s blog “Photo Fraud,” agrues that it should be mandatory that we present our photo identification when it comes to voting. The author also uses a political cartoon to illustrate and strengthen his/her argument. We’ve tried pushing this bill through the states’ legislative but it has failed. Republicans say that it is needed to be presented from qualify citizens to vote. On the other hand the author mentions that Democrats insist that it is a discrimination approach and voting fraudulent is not a serious issue to be resolved. I agree with this author because we do present our photo identification just about every where else and so why would it be wrong to show it at the voting booth.

Voting probably carries a lesser risk of responsibilities comparing it to the times like buying alcohol, over the counter prescriptions, renting movies that we have to show our identification. I definitely think that we ought to do something about this. Voting responsibility is as important to anything else in society that requires photo identification. We should all carry some sort of state identification to function in this society any way so it shouldn’t be a question of discrimination to the minorities unless the minorities that we are referring to are illegal residents.


Every legal citizen have earned to the right to vote one way or other. We don’t want to give gap to the illegal residents that are in the United States to possess the right to vote or encourage any photo fraud activities.Especially with the numerous cases of fraud floating in United States we should take caution when it comes to casting votes for political measures. As a united nation we need to resolve this and projecting ridiculous reasons to not enforce this!
