@2450fall18#reflection my favorite class this semester. thoroughly enjoyed how relevant the concepts are to daily life, and how we're challenged to present that in our assignments. Thank you.
@2450fall18#reflection I think many users do not realize that the #righttobeforgotten exists, we have just come to terms with the fact that there are personal details about us floating around on the internet
@2450fall18#ex#informationasymmetry isn't just present on digital platforms, it is present every time there is a knowledge gap - healthcare industry, used car industry, etc.
@2450fall18#ex#privacyparadox there is an option to reveal where you are on snapmaps and it doesn't contribute to the function of snapchat, but just allows other users to "stalk" where each other are. We talk about how privacy is important but reveal our location for no purpose
@2450fall18#ex#privacy there have been a lot of talk about privacy on social media platforms lately. targetted advertisements (on fb, instagram, etc) make use of collected user data, and many users are not aware of that
@2450fall18#ex#socialmovement that really took flight was during Kavanaugh's hearing - women were coming out about their own experiences and lent massive support to Ford over social media
@2450fall18#ex#transitivity joining a sorority is basically some girl you have met before introducing you to the idea of Greek life and her sisters/friends in the house
@2450fall18@ex @sizetradeoff when people are working together on a group project, the greater the number of people, the more the professor/TA will expect from the group, but the greater the incentive to just depend on others to do the work
@2450fall18#ex#publicgood that is informational is torrent - there are so many documents to be downloaded that are non-excludable and non-rivalrous. Actually, if you download a document and 'seed' it it will help others download it faster
@2450fall18#ex#freeriders in society - when something is a common good for all and people who did not contribute (e.g. through paying taxes) still get to enjoy the same goods
@2450fall18#partialmembership#ex I have partial memberships in a lot of group chats on facebook - different friend groups, sometimes used for work, etc. I don't actively participate all the time but I use them when I need to
@2450fall18#passiveuse#ex is when I scroll through LinkedIn and stalk all the people from school I don't even know personally. I usually end up feeling wowed/jealous at their accomplishments
@2450fall18#polysemy#ex when I tell my wholesome friends I’m going to get some juice they think it’s literal juice when my party friends know otherwise 🍸
@2450fall18 I really enjoy the #personalization that comes with certain shopping sites - they say "Welcome, ____ (person's name)" instead of just "Welcome". Makes me feel like I'm invited to shop
@2450fall18#ex I think my high school relationships are an example of the #lawofpropinquity - we spent every single day together in high school and became friends, but now that we are in college, I realized I don't even like most of them
