  • Comments of the Center for Democracy & Technology
    Comments of the Center for Democracy & Technology Regarding Agency Information Collection Activities: Arrival and Departure Record (Forms I-94 and I-94W) and Electronic System for Travel Authorization 19 August 2016 The Center for Democracy & Technology appreciates the opportunity to provide comments to the Department of Homeland Security on its proposal to begin requesting disclosure of social media identifiers and other online account information from Visa Waiver Program applicants. DHS proposes to ask foreign visitors applying for a waiver of visa requirements to provide “information associated with [their] online presence,” including the “provider/platform” and “social media identifier” used by the applicant. While the details of this proposed information collection are unclear, DHS’s Notice of Collection Activities states that the solicited online identity information “will enhance the existing investigative process” and “provide DHS greater clarity and visibility to possible nefarious activity and connections” of visitors to the United States.1 CDT is deeply concerned that this proposal would invade the privacy and chill the freedom of expression of visitors to the United States and United States citizens. Under the proposed changes, visitors to the U.S. who seek admittance through the Electronic System of Travel Authorization (ESTA), or complete Form I-94W, will be subject to unspecified review and monitoring of their public online activity by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials. This program will also increase the surveillance of U.S. citizens, both as a result of their online connections to visitors to the U.S. and because other countries may seek similar information from U.S.

"I Went From Flabby To Fabulous in Under 4 Weeks, Here's How...." It sounds impossible right? That's what I thought. So we at News 6 Reports decided to investigate. This report details our findings. Before we get into the actual investigation results I want to tell you how we decided to test these miracle supplements. To get started, I volunteered to be the guinea pig. I poured over research for Acai Berry supplements. Studied 175 different suppliers. Only one supplier was honest, pure and brilliantly trustworthy enough for us to use in the test. Their bottle of Acai Ultra Lean has the most concentrated and purest Acai out of all the products we researched.

  • Comment Submitted by David Crawley Comment View Document
    Comment Submitted by David Crawley Comment View document: The notion that my social media identifier should have anything to do with entering the country is a shockingly Nazi like rule. The only thing that this could facilitate anyway is trial by association - something that is known to ensnare innocent people, and not work. What is more this type of thing is repugnant to a free society. The fact that it is optional doesn't help - as we know that this "optional" thing will soon become not-optional. If your intent was to keep it optional - why even bother? Most importantly the rules that we adopt will tend to get adopted by other countries and frankly I don't trust China, India, Turkey or even France all countries that I regularly travel to from the US with this information. We instead should be a beacon for freedom - and we fail in our duty when we try this sort of thing. Asking for social media identifier should not be allowed here or anywhere. Comment Submitted by David Cain Comment View document: I am firmly OPPOSED to the inclusion of a request - even a voluntary one - for social media profiles on the I-94 form. The government should NOT be allowed to dip into users' social media activity, absent probable cause to suspect a crime has been committed. Bad actors are not likely to honor the request. Honest citizens are likely to fill it in out of inertia. This means that the pool of data that is built and retained will serve as a fishing pond for a government looking to control and exploit regular citizens.

  • A Study on College-Aged Students Habit of Reading Online Food Blogs Research Paper, English Composition III
    ENGLISH DEPARTMENT, FU JEN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY GRADUATION PROJECT 2016 A Study on College-Aged Students Habit of Reading Online Food Blogs Research Paper, English Composition III Vondi Lin Lin 1 A Study on College-Aged Students Habit of Reading Online Food Blogs Have you ever consulted an online food blog when choosing a restaurant to dine in? Back in times when the Internet was not so prevalent, people received information mostly from television or print sources, such as advertisement flyers or magazines. However, with the development of the internet, the way people seek for information has been altered. TV news and print sources are no longer the major means of knowledge. According to a professor, Jill Walker Rettberg, in digital culture, “We have moved from a culture dominated by mass media…to one where participatory media is becoming the norm.”. People now prefer to look for information provided by either professionals or amateurs online. Moreover, the presence of online food blogs has also changed consumers’ decision making. According to the rankings made by famous Taiwanese blogging forum, Pixnet, out of the most popular 100 blogs, food blogs account for a largest proportion among all the other categories. People now tend to search for information in food blogs before deciding which places to eat. However, in “Bloggers’ Motivations and Behaviors,” researchers argue that despite the fact that blogs represent a new and interesting platform, most of the information they provide is unproven (472). But why do people still read them? What influence do online blogs have? According to Txàber Allué’, in his paper, “Food Sector Communication and Online Influencers,” it is said that with the rise of the Internet, “online influencers, whether bloggers or people with important digital profiles, have assumed a decisive role in creating opinion” (312).

  • Shape of Automation
    Ling-Fei Lin The [Shapeless] Shape of Automation: Moments of Constructing Factory Robots in East Asia Ling-Fei Lin, Harvard University For WeRobot 2018 Conference @ Stanford Law School Creation brings transformation and also destruction, but in what shape? When robots and automation gradually penetrate into factory life in East Asia, what will the micro production landscape look like? At the transitioning moment of constructing and using assembly robots, changes are never linear and straightforward. When new robotic species are made, one by one, by their human creators, long-term human practices are segmented, analyzed, rationalized, and then mechanized. It is not the whole body, but anatomized parts and functions that are replaced. Furthermore, they bring equally shocking effects to those who work with the replaced core. With new functions and potentially new divisions of labor, robots start to compete and co-evolve with (parts of) humans and their practices, although usually with overwhelming power over their competitors. Laptop Production Landscape East Asia has been a major production base for global consumer electronics and computer products for a few decades, in particular after the 1980s. In the laptop industry, annually around 50-90% of worldwide products were made by Taiwanese contract manufacturers with their factories in China after 2001, including Quanta Computer, Compal Electronics, Wistron Corpration and Foxconn Technology, producing brand products for Apple, Dell, Hewlett Packard, Acer, Asus and so on. The emerging usage of assembly robots in computer factories is a watershed and provides us with an excellent opportunity to explore the inner social world of producers since 1 Ling-Fei Lin all elements have to react to this changing moment.
