Exposed


The rise of the” fifth estate” is going to change the way we see the world! You can already access everything you need with just a click of a button from shopping, banking and social networking. Even though it does make things so much easier, but are we hiding behind our computer screen?

In America Obama made a page where American citizens could post questions and queries. Obama, as far as know, replied to everyone with a very presidential response. I believe this was the best way for Obama to reach out and connect all Americans together to show them that he believes everyone is equal and their thoughts are valid. 

The rise of the “fifth estate” doesn’t just affect the way politicians communicate with the world but also the way individuals do also.
                                            
Bullying is always going to be a problems and now with the internet and social networking it’s just making it to accessible for people to get knocked down.
 
Working in a shop that attracts a lot of old ladies I hear  all the time “all you young people will lean to regret the internet” and most of the time I just shrug it off thinking whatever you crazy old lady the internet is amazing! But sometimes I stop and think, our whole lives are exposed over the internet.
Every day I see people laying out their deepest darkest secrets in a status for all to see and most of the time I just think to myself  F**KING attention seekers please shut up! Sometimes it’s more than just letting out steam. The last month or so I have seen a few stories relating to people posting their most inner darkest secrets and people terrorized for it, this being the last resort and they end up hurting themselves physically because they just have nowhere else to turn.
