How Radio Changed The World

Radio waves were first identified and studied by German physicist Heinrich Hertz in 1886. The first practical radio transmitters and receivers were developed around 1895-6 by Italian Guglielmo Marconi, and radio began to be used commercially around 1900. Then around the early 1900's radio became a huge deal to families everywhere. People used it as there happy place during the war. most people thought that radio was a fun way to keep their children entertained. Then cars became more affordable and more poplar. so then they car radio became invented. People could take radio on the go anywhere they wanted. It became a huge fad and more and more people started to use it. Nowadays most people just Listen to the radio in the car. Radio at home was replaced by tv. Most people now just use radio in the car when they are board. Radio was a groundbreaking invention that changed the way people operate. In foreign countries people used radio to help communicate. for example the king used it to give speeches. Today radio is mostly used in cars to play music while  driving. Radio was an invention that left a huge impact on the world.

Ted Talk Posts

After watching all the TedTalks I realized that all my information is not private and the government is spying on us more than we think. I was surprised to find out that police cars have cameras that take a picture of you license plates that store information for the future. I was also upset to know that the police take pictures of what we do and they store them. Also I thought it was interesting that our calls used to be listened to all the time. Since Apple is coming out with newer technology it has become harder to access messages and texts though phones. I thought it was interesting that companies kept complaining that they wanted more access to people's phones if they did something bad. I also thought electric tattoos are very interesting. These tattoos that are like online footprints. That can be scary. For example when you post a picture on facebook you are able to get face recognized. That is crazy. From a couple of pictures facebook knows who you are. Online is not private anymore and that is super scary to me. The fact that nothing stays private anymore scares me. 

Social Media Overload

In some recent facebook article some girl wrote about why she quit social media. This is because social media poisons the minds. She wrote about how that inside the system is killing her ego and her self confidence. I believe that social media is hurting teens at this age. Teens are getting bullied or left out and it is taking a toll on their feelings. I feel that steps need to be taken to improve this impact on teens. I feel that teens should be cut off from social media until they are at least 18. This way they are more mature. The internet also exposes kids to harsh ideas that they do not need to be introduced too. It exposes kids to violet and crimes. My brother for example at age 12 was playing violent games. I feel that he has changed and him growing up as a person. He has been exposed to more ideas that is not needed. I feel that kids these day and age need to be more sheltered from technology. I feel that in this day and age kids should have grown up without technology.
