Movement of DRM-free Academic Journals in UK

According to BBC, DRM-free academic journals movement is taking action in UK, for reforming the British Library. It will give a great change for users. The concept of reformation is to make the library become the center of shared resources of UK.
By the way, what is DRM? It is the abbreviation of the Digital Right Management, means controlling the idea of sharing intellectual property (ex. music, journals, articles).
Since all academic journals at the British Library have DRM, people cannot use them effectively without visiting there. Of course, users in other countries have the same difficulty.
The movement is to supply the DRM-free copies of these journals through using the computer network. Therefore, other small libraries will be able to have these and share with their visitors. Visitors will be able to get more information than ever before. In some way, people in overseas will also able to be blessed with the movement!

What Is "Net Neutrality"?

Net Neutrality is a concept that all Internet users can get open, equal services of the Internet such as their providers, applications, devices, and information. Internet is an open place for everyone; there should not be any racial, gender, religious, age discrimination.
Users are able to get almost free choice to select services, like their provider, application, and legal devices. For example, they can choose the application for playing music; they choose Windows Media Player, iTunes, Media Player Classic, and so forth.
On the other hand, users must have a responsibility for their decision. For instance, they can get information freely from the whole Internet, but they have responsibility for information they get. If that information is wrong and they get damaged, they cannot complain it. As for me, I am not able to claim information that I use to write today's assignment.
In sum, Net Neutrality gives everyone freedom of using the Internet, but the great responsibility for their choice. Maybe buying Anti-Virus Software is one of their responsibilities.

Computer Gifts I Would Buy for Friends & Family

Actually I have 2 people to present some computer gifts when I ask to do so.
First of all, I would like to buy some online games for my father. It is essential for my wonderful future plan. Online games provide me a new way of communication: battle with my father, purchase the goal by cooperating, or chatting on the board. We have to make the most of the awesome civilization (of course the Internet)! Since we are far away, but games will connect us.
For the friend, I am going to gift her a pen tablet. She is really good at drawing with that tool; however, hers was broken and I cannot appreciate her pictures now. It is sad to enjoy seeing them. Unfortunately, I promised her to buy a new one as her birthday present… Although the cost must damage my purse a lot ;(
In short, I will choose these computer gifts for communication with my important people and for looking their happy smiling(((OuO*) faces.

What Is "Social Engineering"?

Social Engineering means to get any personal or important information by breaking security without using any technical skills.
To do it, Just tricky communication skills are needed to gain reliance from the target. For instance, social engineers use technical language, or pretend to have special and professional knowledge about a certain field. Why can people doubt experts? Moreover, targets usually tend to want to be ‘helpful’ for these people; therefore, if they trust them, they are easy to tell information in order to ‘help’ them. Not only targets trust the ‘reliable’ strangers, also they often do not notice the value of information; they do not know information technology has an extraordinary influence on the society. However, it is actually hard to distinguish correct people from the false ones.
It can be necessary and emergency issue that victims have a responsibility to realize the real importance of information they treat. It is wrong to criticize only the act of Social Engineering. People have to realize that information becomes both useful and dangerous.
