The cost of free information

 This video has given me a lot of new things to look at when i think about the internet. There really is a lot of people on the web, especially my generation really doesn't pay attention to anything of what will happen with what we put on our computers now. We don't think about the possible future consequences and what will happen with the information we unknowingly are giving up to complete strangers. Basically we have gotten way off track with the Internets original purpose and have became completely blindsided by the fact that we can get anything or everything we want fast, and basically free. But we aren't really getting things for free. We are constantly being watched by someone or something to help us become one more person to fit into society and we are leaving behind our individual freedom that we once knew. It really is a scary thing to think about when you have things such as these pointed out to you. I have gotten a complete change of view on how i use the Internet and how i could be affected in the future. Our generation, i have a feeling, is going to be blindsided with a huge impact that will leave us in the dust. I guess all we can do is wait and see unless we can find a way to change this. The video has pointed out a major effect that i didn't realize. We are all becoming in basically a uniform society where everyone is becoming more and more similar in ways they would never think about. I think that this video could be a huge wake up call to a lot of people in my generation and future generations. Hopefully we can get this changed and fixed before it could potentially cause disaster for the future. This is my opinion on what the video has showed us.
