week 8 task 6 "Disagreements with articles"

ARTICLE 2
This article focuses mainly on the negative side of the era of “digital native.” The likes of Facebook it sees as a platform for bullies not just now but as a weapon of the future. The fact they believe there should be greater measures of protection seems a nice idea, but because the internet is so open I can't see how they are going to be able to bring in measure that will effectively prevent some form of bullying, as it's hard enough in real life. Also it fails to take into account that websites such as facebook and Myspace have aloud individuals to keep in touch with their friends, to make new friends, an in particular with MySpace help new music artists such as Lilly Allen, become notice and make it big in the music Industry.
