Ethics on Social Media


        In this globalization era, technology grew rapidly especially in terms of social networking. According to Hootsuite, at least 45% recorded from the human total population has used social media last January 2019s. It showed how influencing social media now.

Social media itself, help us to communicate with many people from the various circle. Whether it for a personal or public interest. The trend for using chat apps has grown since last 2000s along with the emergence of diverse social media and becomes society choice like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Path, etc. Not only can give good impacts such make us easier to exchange information with others but also can give bad impacts if it used arbitrarily like spreading hoax which can harm to others. Therefore, it would be nice if we, as social media users, use our social media as well as possible.

As we know, social media gives us the freedom to be able to communicate with anyone. But it not means we can abuse that freedom. Freedom not means without ethics. There’re some ethics that we can know and apply together to be a good user and minimize the bad impact that may occur to us.
      
        First, choose and use the good and decent word. When we interact with others, the word we used very determine whether our purpose conveyed properly to others or not. Second, respect others. Our good and decent word seen from how us respecting our interlocutors. This may be a simple thing, but it will very help us to make sure our interaction running smoothly. Respect in this point can also apply when we use their opus. 
        Third, make sure you share the truth on your social media. Don’t share anything if you don’t know is it true or not. Fourth, limit to share your privacy. Although that is our right to post anything on our social media, please be wise for not share too much about it because there might someone out there felt uncomfortable with it. And last, just be yourself and don’t get addicted. Generally, people who get addicted to using their social media would create their new character besides their main character. They will force themselves to follow the trend which could make them stress.
Therefore, let’s be wise social media users. Maximize the benefits and minimize the detriment.

So the point is  to create a computational system that could solve problems like a human brain. The Neural Networks was founded by  Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts in 1943. Then it was upgraded with AI (Artificial Intelligence) in 1975 by Kunijiko Fukushima called Artificial Neural Network (ANN) .   Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts Today  Neural Networks are important in information age, because help society to solve complex problems in real life condition.

A Thing called Ransomware Ransom malware, or   ransomware , is a type of malware that prevents users from accessing their system or personal files and demands ransom payment in order to regain access. The earliest variants of ransomware were developed in the late 1980s, and payment was to be sent via snail mail. In this day, ransomware authors order that payment be sent via cryptocurrency or credit card. There are several different ways that ransomware can infect your computer. One of the most common methods today is through malicious spam, or  malspam , which is unsolicited email that is used to deliver malware. The email might include booby-trapped attachments, such as PDFs or Word documents. It might also contain links to malicious websites. Malspam uses  social engineering  in order to trick people into opening attachments or clicking on links by appearing as legitimate—whether that’s by seeming to be from a trusted institution or a friend. Cybercriminals...
