As we previously considered our reactions to The Master Switch we should also do the same thing for Consent of the Networked by Rebecca MacKinnon.  As before, you can present your thoughts in any format or organization that makes sense to you, but address the following questions in your post:

What do you think MacKinnon's point was in writing this book? Does she have a personal agenda? If so, what was it?
How persuasive are her arguments?  Do you buy them? If yes - why? If not, what are your counter arguments?
How have your personal perceptions on the openness of the internet been impacted by reading Consent of the Networked?

This assignment asks that you select a technical object and write a description of its looks, features, and functions. In completing this assignment, you will learn how to define and describe a technical object to someone who has little knowledge with it.

When selecting a technical object there are some objects that are not allowed for this assignment. These included: smartphones, pocket calculators, video game console or controllers, and fitness trackers due to the internet having easily available technical specifications of these items. Moreover, the four objects from the Subjective/Objective Language discussion are also not eligible for this assignment. You are not to copy/paste and cite someone else's technical specifications of an object. That is not the point of this assignment. Rather, you are to conduct the measurements yourself and conduct light research.  If you chose to work with one of the objects that is now allowed, ten (10) points will be deducted from your

Researchers are experimenting with human emotions as a type of input. A development called affective computing uses input devices such as video cameras and skin sensors with software similar to speech recognition programs to allow a computer to read a users emotions.

Your task: Explain what an affective computing input system would look like for your favorite app or program. Tell which emotion, based on video or skin sensor or sound input, would create which action, for example, when my app senses that I am sleepy, based on my eyes looking heavier, start a counter to turn off the app after 15 minutes. Or when my app senses that I am nervous, based on my hands getting sweaty, launch a calming music app to play in the background.

Cover at least five (5) emotions. Some emotions you might consider include (but are not limited to) happiness, anger, sadness, frustration, fear, surprise, sleepiness, embarrassment, disappointment, pride, nervousness, curiosity, impatience, joy, a
