Think pair share jigsaw article rapid research

Homework:  Read one of the articles from the attachment below.  In  a google doc shared with stark.brooklinehighschool@gmail.com, share what article you read and what questions you have after reading the article.

I have read the China’s Great Firewall article. From reading the article, China’s government censor many non-verified websites to millions of internet users to other random websites. This is due to changing the Domain Name System (DNS). However, these types of rerouting can lead to malicious DDOS attacks. The government has power to commit these types of attacks to computers intentionally or accidentally. One main question I have about this article is that did any of the citizens from China have done anything to the government involving censorship online.

What are the computational ideas utilized? Continue the exploration of HTML by determining how you would complete today’s activity in HTML. Further compare your own protocol with HTML. Reflections from Blown to Bits Chapter 3: Highlighting in a PDF docs works by using a Highlight tool that will send bits over to the letters and alter the binary. The binary is changed so that when the bits processes through, the letters will be the same but highlighted in a color instead. Between my own protocol and today’s activity, they look pretty similar since they are in the same HTML format. My own protocol was a little less precise about fully doing it in HTML due to being new at the protocol.

What do you think, foresight or luck? Blown to Bits (www.bitsbook.com), Chapter 3 - Ghosts in the Machine, pp. 91-92, “Data Formats as Public Property,” then answer the following question: What do you think the Internet would be like today if different companies’ network protocols were still competing for adoption for the Internet, instead of TCP being the de facto standard? Blown to Bits Ch.3 Reflection- (by Josh Lim) I believe it is foresight because they were not fully aware on their issues at the time. The designers from the experiments would have trouble understan...
