WEEK 4

I read  Database of Facebook user phone numbers is offline  and in this article it talks mainly about cyber security issues. Facebook is a big name when it comes to social media in peoples lives. Nobody wants to have their private information leaked and Facebook had phone numbers on a public server and had no idea about it. It makes you question on who you can trust or if social media sites can be trusted. I don't think people should just stop using or posting information on social media but be more cautious about what they post. Also this was just a phone number but, this could lead to more problems for people's cyber presence later.

WEEK 3

Before I watched this video, I had a very basic idea on what the Supreme Court did. I knew that they review over cases from people whom think they are wrongfully convicted but, after watching this video I understand more about what the Supreme Court is and what it does. The Supreme court has dealt with some interesting cases throughout history: Marbury v. Madison in 1803  Gibbons v. Ogden in 1824 Dred Scott v. Sandford in 1857 Schenck v. United States in 1919 Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 Gideon v. Wainwright 1963 etc They also have dealt with cases in present day:  Allen v. Cooper Banister v. Davis County of Maui v. Hawaii Wildlife Fund Department of Homeland Security v. Regents of the University of California etc The Supreme Court is the highest court in the federal judiciary of the United States that helps those who feel wronged in some way another chance to be heard beyond the District and Appeals court.
