Tech and IT information
Guide
to Tech and IT Information and Internet Services
- The
Internet and the Law
- The
legality involved in relation to the internet regarding
transactions, interactions between users and internet crimes are
clearly stated by each countries judicial system and enforced by
each country and by Interpol. Each judicial overseeing body of
government and law dictates the rules of the people for use of
internet for business, social interactions and for political
expression. Several countries in the world do not allow certain
information to pass and is filtered out by software and government
officials, or censors.
- When
users from one country to the next interact with citizens of other
countries, it is imperative that all laws be followed for per
citizen.
- If
business laws
are broken regarding the use of the internet, then the offender is
subject to the laws of the residing country, where there server
resides or subject to international warrants for extradition
depending on the severity of the crime.'

Advancements in Technology
-
Section 1 of the Guide to Tech and IT Information and Internet
Services, serves as a primer to the rest of the guide. First
understanding the parameters within which each user is expected to
follow is an important step in the advancement of that technology.
Specifically concerning the devices that are available today, many
rely on technology such as passive location tracking that uses
military satellites in geosynchronous orbit. Laws pertaining the
use of these satellites and that technology have been updated to
disallow the use of said technology without the express consent of
the consumer. Previously, as a default, the technology was being
used without consent or knowledge and may have broken the trust that
consumers have for passive location tracking software.
-
Responsible use of the technology by both the consumer and the
manufacturer is imperative in continuing to advance computers,
tablets, and
smartphones.
As this trust continues to grow, more users will allow the
technology to be implemented on their tablet pcs and other devices
for uses in
dating,
college courses
and other such diversions. This is an important trust as the
consumer is the key driving factor behind the advancement of
technology, especially the early adopters of technology that are
willing to pay a premium to be one of the first to utilize said
technology.
-
Tablet Pc’s are making an impact, but are an unexpected return to
larger devices while also being a reduction in size from a standard
laptop. Early adopters of this technology have predominantly been
for business and medical application.
-
- Cloud
Hosting and Storage
- The
current trend in the massive overhaul of known technology is the
move towards cloud services. These services include storage,
application sharing, application usage as well as a number of
transferring and backup services.
-
-
Cloud servers
are an the integral technology in the process of moving new media to
a centralized location to better serve the consumer as many
retailers are finding. These services are being utilized by some
of the top name retailers in the industry.
- The
future application of this technology will continue along the same
concept of centralization of services. A consumer will be able to
shop at an
internet store
for music, clothes and even groceries and have the data stored on a
cloud server and the material goods delivered to their home.
-
- The
Cost of New Technology
- New
technology is often more expensive so that the manufacturer can
determine the demand of the product and set price points
appropriately and also to generate revenue to continue to mass
produce the product. As more products are sold and the demand
decreases so does the price.
Tablets are
currently the latest trend and many consumers are happy to pay the
current prices because the alternatives such as laptops and desktops
are around the same price and generally provide the same power,
speed and application handling.
-
Devices such as smartphones especially those that are looking for a
competitive edge are reducing price points and making deals with
cell carriers to provide consumers with the technology on what is
best compared to as a layaway program disguised as a two year
agreement. Essentially, those that sign up for a two year service
agreement can receive a
Smartphone at
a discount or completely free. This is another method in which to
implement new technology on a massive scale.
- Newer
technology, being developed in other regions as well as robotics
labs that are making wide use of passive location tracking software
are in relation to the development of Androids. While still
robotic, these machines are being developed to help those medically
as well as protect human life by replacing a dangerous role to
humans with a mechanical counterpart with an operator.
-
-
Further Development of the Technology
-
Android technology is the next step in computers. Now that the
computerized brain has been developed to a rudimentary intelligence
stage in comparison to the actual human brain, the technology can be
applied to replicating human motion and in some cases, provide
actual mobility for a human. The first
Android
technology is already being used to
connect to spinal columns and provide the ability for paraplegics to
walk again.
- Other
applications for this technology will be found over the next ten
years. While eerily similar to science fiction novels and programs,
the actual technology is not that far advanced.
Androids that
we know from these types of media are far superior to what is being
developed currently, however still very similar to the way that the
IBM AI Watson technology is being utilized.
-
- Future
Developments to Consumer Tech
- The
next steps in the advancement of current technologies will be seen
in the upgrading of
tablet pc technology.
The design will continue to become flatter, have more storage
capacity by relying on cloud services and may possibly be a device
that can be folded or rolled up as was demonstrated 16 years ago.
-
Tablet technology will go thru many phases of upgrading speed and
reliability and consumers may become annoyed at the rapid pace in
which the technology is being developed. First adopters may be
overwhelmed by the amount of
tablet upgrades
that will be necessary to keep up with the trend. First adopters of
this technology should expect a
new tablet to
be released once every year and eventually one every six months as
is being seen in with
smartphones
currently.
