Zizek says on page 423 that 9/11 was the catalyst for new walls to be built. For Israel and the west bank to the US-Mexico Border. do you agree with his take that these are just new forms of apartheid? #rheadd

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

Zizek cites Bill Gates as building his empire and reputation on the idea that knowledge is tangible property and almost everyone who steals software are stealing private property. #rheadd

@rheaddavinash I do not think people truly understand the ramifications of our actions today on the future. There are still many people that reject global warming as a whole and others who are just not educated enough on the topic and do not understand how drastic the changes will be

@ben_roberts_4 Target ads and AI uses my search history, such as Houston Astros and Avengers, to create my personalized filter bubble. With continuous information on these topics, I can get trapped in a problematic cycle that excludes topics like politics and scientific theory #peristasis

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

the giant monopolies know their strengths and know there isn’t much anyone can do about them besides talk about it #rheadd

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

the idea of ridding personal accounts and creating institutional accounts seems okay on paper, but with technology and what we have learned companies can do, they will still figure out who is running those accounts #rheadd

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

why do you think the rising use of media lowers empathy levels among every day users? #rheadd

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

it seems like major companies are taking advantage of convenience to monetize consumers and extract personal data to then turn into more money #rheadd

@UTMeredithH This is also a good example of martyria. you can provide more detail about the libraries and coffee shops in your neighborhood to make it personal, providing that experience and utilizing the device

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@UTMeredithH Your twitter thread does a good job of describing your perspective on all the different topics we spoke about in class and how they have affected you. I think you can use specific examples from class/articles to enhance your final paper to add more detail

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@Shelby52840404 You can use irony here and write something like "Being at an institution known all around the world with people from countless different backgrounds, it is ironic that my location is limiting me to comprehending the extent of the digital divide in the US"

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@Shelby52840404 I like your twitter thread and the style of writing you chose. It is very to the point in explaining the circumstances of the digital divide, which is needed to explain it. I think you can expand more on details with personal experiences with the divide in your paper.

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@CeCeDebnam You can use personification here to really show how bad the cycle is: "members of the lower class cannot fully participate in society when in the vicious grasp of the hands of the digital divide."

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@CeCeDebnam I really liked how your thread flowed from one tweet to the next. You can see the thought process and how each tweet connects and transitions to the one after it. I also liked how you added your personal experience in seeing the divide first hand, it will be good for the paper

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@rheaddavinash I think this tweet would be a good place to use #peristasis because you have already provided you personal background. Add a bit of detail and you can incorporate this rhetorical device.

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@rheaddavinash I really like how you use your personal background to provide sufficient detail to back up your claims and recognition of the digital divide. Overall I think it was a good thread. Maybe use a little more from class to connect the two thoughts.

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@ben_roberts_4 Here would be a good place to use #example. "Targeting advertising and AI uses my search history such as (example goes here) to create my personalized filter bubble."

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

@ben_roberts_4 Your twitter thread was good and I liked the diversity of your tweets. You touched on many topics we spoke about in class while simultaneously adding your own perspective.

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

filter bubbles have created a version of the internet that only I see, while entertaining, hiding the truth about problems like the digital divide under repetitive content that reinforces where I come from, how I look, and how I act

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

Before taking this class, I was blinded to the digital divide in my community and around the world because I took access to the internet for granted. I was from a nice neighborhood, good education, and given opportunities to explore technological curiosities early on #peristasis

[Casey Nadison @NadisonCasey]

the internet and new technologies are proving to be nothing but a contradictory blend of creative collaboration and cause for suffering #alliteration
