X-Ray Wi-Fi

In today’s world many safety devices have been created in order to protect and keep us safe. Of all the devices in the world, this one is extremely cheap and could also be the most beneficial in our lives. The Wi-Vi device is useful in the sense that it can see through walls. The technology uses Wi-Fi sources and transmitting antennas which cancel out all signals that match each other. The result is a human tracking software that is safe and cost effective. The Wi-Vi device can also be used by police or rescue squads to assist in recovery or emergency operations.

I believe that our school could very easily use this new technology for safety reasons. If we were trapped by an outside intruder or crushed under rubble due to a tornado or storm, emergency officials could find our location immediately. Since Wi-Fi sources are typically located in every room, it would be cost-effective and easy to set-up. Another important factor is the importance to classroom life. We could utilize this technology to create smart classrooms that help teach children in a more cognitive way. We could reinforce lessons through games, puzzles, and activities created especially for this software. Once again just to reiterate, the best part about the software is the cost effectiveness and the speed and ease of the installation.

                                                                                                                                                    This technology could be used by household consumer’s everywhere. Not only for safety and security but also for improvement of our everyday lives. It could be used to turn on and off lights, close doors, set alarms, and control daily life with a flick of the wrist. I can also see using this technology when I go to college and stay in the dorms there. Due to the easy of the applications involved with the Wi-Vi system, I would feel secure knowing that I could be tracked. By having this new technology in place it would just give me peace of mind. Not only for myself but also for the rest of the student body and those living on campus.

Bleeding Passwords

Cipriani, Jason. "Which Sites Have Patched the Heartbleed Bug?" CNET. CBS Interactive, 9 Apr. 2014. Web. 10 Apr. 2014.

Summary- Just a few days ago a new encryption key devastated Yahoo and other companies. Known as the " Heartbleed Bug" it allows for almost anybody to discover your password, username, and other sensitive data. Not only does this effect Yahoo sites, but also Google Prezi, and other sites we use a school daily. This could pose a big risk if it is not dealt wit quickly.


Connection- This bug literally jeopardizes the school work we students complete on Google and other websites. If we can't securely store our work, then we are in jeopardy of scoring 0 on most of our assignments. Not only this, it could cause trouble with home life due irresponsible people searching bad things on our accounts without us knowing. This could be the scariest thing that could happen to our accounts this year.

Reaction- I believe that this could truly damage our social world and bring us all down with it. This bug could be modified to work in the possible future if it is not repaired immediately. This bug could also make hackers and other social attackers more frequent and brave as the year continues. All I have to say it is needs to be fixed quickly and monitored so that future incidents do not occur.
