Assignment #: IC01
Assignment: Internet Connection Types / Internet Controversy
Due: Feb 1/2000
Marks: 20 marks
PART A (10 marks)
Create a small report that illustrates the three main
connection types (classifications) to the Internet. Describe where they would be
used, who would use them, their speeds, and the costs if you can find them.
Provide lots of examples (whether the examples be names of particular
services/organizations, or types of lines.) You can use your book, the
Newbie.net cybercourse, or any other materials to assist you.
PART B (10 marks)
The Internet has been the source of controversy. Some of
the concerns raised by individuals and the news media are:
-
Censorship.
Should certain material be restricted to select groups, or banned entirely
from the Internet?
-
Copyright
protection. Should originators of work on the Internet have the same
protection as creators in other media?
-
Authentication.
Should regulations ensure that the purported author of material on the
Internet is, indeed, the author?
-
Security.
How can private information and sensitive communications be kept from
eavesdroppers?
-
Overload.
How can current resources handle a burgeoning number of users and
increasingly complex Web pages?
Write a document that describes your position on each of these issues. Be
sure to include explanations to back up your position. Cite examples where
appropriate. Length should be about a paragraph per issue (1 page).
