OTM: Playboy Covers Up

I think its a genius marketing move by Playboy and I cant wait to see how they execute it. Will it plunge and backfire on them? Or can they make a statement and ditch the true slutty appeal?

Physical: Playboy will now stop producing full nude photos on its physical copies of Playboy magazine. They have been doing this for years on in and have made millions of this process, sex just isn't selling like it used to.

Psychological: I love it because this is expressing a different side of Playboy. Can they still sell magazines if women are shown off for having stunning looks, and are classy or is it about how big your boobs are?Its an interesting change for me to see!

Social: Playboy was that dirty magazine that we all talked about was wrong but had one under our bed type of deal. Its interesting to see the different conversation thats going to be talked about now with this change, its still playboy so well just wait and see.

Temporal: Playboy has been a hot topic for years. Sex sells, fantasies sell, so its a different approach but they can quite possibly pull this off.

Cultural: I think they are directing this to a class change more than a cultural change. They want the girls to look more appealing in a classier light probably so more men who like the sophisticated look can buy in.

Climate Change 1.0

Social impacting climate? You may not think they are even relatively close but in fact they are, unlike older times social media plays a key role in this. If  EDF officials and community leaders took to this outlet it would make it widespread for everyone to see. Have more of a connection with online users and what they can do to help fight climate change and stop emissions and pollution.

Religion 3.0

I feel like religion and social media have joined forces, in doing so has caused a conflict. Messages like, "like this or you don't love Jesus" Many religions have gone mobile you can now follow your favorite church or leader for daily bible quotes.

Im trying to find the logic in this, but I cant seem to. I rather let people find god in their own light and not shove it down a users throat.

OTM:Darkode

Wow.. This makes me feel really unsafe. Even typing this makes me feel unsafe. Someone can just take everything you worked  hard for over the years. I couldn't imagine this happening to me especially with all my school work.

Physical: Hackers have gotten terribly smart, and are attacking the government, universities, and just plain ol people. People are always watching you, even online..

Psychological: These hackers are smart! You can outsmart them but its nearly impossible.They are workers for someone who owns a business. It is a big business.

Cultural: In the U.S. there is not known of a actual business but somewhere in Russia there is a marketplace, like a cubical of hackers doing this to thousands of people.

Social: The hackers are outsmarting you from your email like spam. They are young people just like me and my peers that do this to manipulate people and take there hard earned money.

Temporal: With technology advancing, older people will become more prey. Younger people aren't as prone to just click and sign up for random sites anymore. This is prevalent and needs to be stopped, but who can do that?

Privacy 2.0



Trader or Hero? Security or Privacy?
I love it! Either  way you look at it, it is a contradiction. He is a hero in my eyes because, he took the liberty and courage to exploit the government to the American people. His intentions were good but his execution could have been a little better.I understand where the government is coming from, there main task is to keep Americans safe, but does that mean watch us 24/7? 
Snowden is a good person deep down, he did the right thing. He did what was morally right. But as a devout user of the internet we must be more cautious when handing over information. What ever you put on the internet is fair game and will be there forever, deleted or not. We need to realize that we are signing over our right to privacy on the internet when using certain sites, and programs. 
As technology grows and advances I urge you to please take precaution before diving in the realms of the internet and handing over your online consent to privacy.
I love the picture I put beneath this because it stresses the qualities of American people that they are taking for our "security"

OTM: Pope Not A Politician

Physical: The pope came to America to meet his followers and speak.

Psychological: I feel as if we put this burden on his shoulders. We view him this way, he doesn't come off as a politician. Never has he exploited his side or views on politics. He just wants to be the Pope.

Social: He is a well known public figure, and he should be treated as such.

Cultural: In American culture we buy into what politicans say, this is why they get elected. The pope has a cultural aspect to follow with his followers and not only that he stepped out of his comfort zone and accepted everyone.

Temporal: This was in a great timely fashion, we nit pic every public figure when in reality we should leave them alone and let them say what they need to say. Not take it out of context and make a story up of it. Do your research!
