Caleb is chosen to test Ava based on information gathered from his search engine. He works for a company called Bluebook which is the modern day Google and social media combined. Nathan the founder of the company went through all the employee internet history to calculate the perfect person for the test. Caleb’s privacy was invaded. But we know that everything on the internet is stored somewhere. Everything that we do is tracked, we all have a digital footprint on the web. Companies like Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and Google are able to find personal things using calculations of what you do day to day. People do not realize that everything they do is tracked. I think it is an invasion of privacy but it is not against the law. We should all know by now that nothing is private on the web. Companies should tell their users that they use their information.

    Throughout The Incredibles, the crime rate in the city does not change as much but rather the ability to prevent crime, as superheroes are thrown in and out of the equation, meaning that the best solution is to adjust the police force to be better for times lacking superheroes. Graph (a) shows the overall change for crime in the movie, and is broken down in Graph (b), which shows the original supply and demand before the superheroes went into hiding, and Graph (c), which expresses the movement along the demand curve as the lack of superheroes affects the city’s ability to prevent crime and increases the cost of doing so. This movement is expressed in Graph (a) as the price floor line, which moves demand to a point of less quantity and supply

Set in Nathan’s home Ex Machina (which is his research lab as well), is the equivalent of a spaceship even though it doesn’t look like a spaceship it represents the same thing as it is far away from normal civilisation. It gives a different scene to the present, the sci-fi genre does this to “allow viewers to see the narrative from a more neutral perspective.” Ex Machina also places the unfamiliar (Ava) in context to the familiar, (which is the current period of time) along with Caleb as a normal human to present a juxtaposition of how the two ‘different’

Freud calls this penis envy, this is also one of Freud’s most controversial theories that many reject completely. There is something in the way Freud seems to address women that draws a similarity as to how Allen’s female characters are constructed. Allen is often scrutinised for dealing with female characters as erotic objects merely there for the male gaze. Many of his film including some scenes of Irrational Man includes narrators explaining their own actions that more often than not actively objectify young women.

    Why Online Tracking Should Be Stopped Isn’t it horrible advertisers can follow you from site to site, even if you sign in to your computer anonymously? Not just that, they can tell if you own two different devices, keep track of your purchases (on and off line,) and share that with other people for money. Allowing advertisers to collect data (information) on innocent people does not let them give the public a better experience, it simply invades their privacy (their personal information) in ways they do not want. Because advertisers treat you differently because of the sites you go on, the lack of authority for online advertisers, and powerful cookies that can track information about you that you don’t want shared, online tracking is a awful thing.

Additionally, it has given the government unwarranted information about citizens uninvolved in the initial investigation. These uses are unconstitutional and unethical. In order for these technologies to be used in an ethical playing field, we must implement comprehensive privacy laws as described in Ethics and Emerging Technologies because “the laws protecting Americans against non-governmental privacy invasions are pitifully weak” (Stanley and Steinhardt 281).
