ACTIVITY 2: ESSAY

1. Internet safety is important to secure online transactions and while using digital wallets in mobiles.
Especially kids, teenagers, and less computer and internet literate people cheated more on the Internet.
Parents need to check that isn't they falling into trap of harmful activities online. Safety on the Internet is
not the same as safety on a playground but it can be just as important. You may think that being in the
privacy of your home provides more security but trouble can easily be found, especially for kids on the
Internet. 

2. The digital footprint that is left behind can have repercussions in all areas of your teen's life, potentially
resulting in missed job opportunities, public sharing of personal information, ruined relationships — or,
in what is likely more relevant to them right now: Their parents finding out what they've been up to and
subsequently being punished. Kids are growing up in the instant data era, where photos can be taken and
uploaded to the Internet in a matter of seconds. If you or your friends have ever posted about being
lucky cell phone cameras and social media weren’t around when you were in high school or college, you
know the impact of social media mistakes and a digital footprint. 

3. Calm down. After the jittery seeps out of your system, try to relax and do something that calms you
down. Whatever you do, try to relax. And if you still need to wiggle out the nerves, go ahead. There are
many ways on how to deal with embarrassments. They are not all easy but not impossible. If someone
posted something embarrassing about you, you might: Ignore it, talked to the person who did you
wrong, check if your rights are violated, always report the abuser’s post, do not be afraid to ask for
help. And if you still need to wiggle out the nerves, go ahead.

4. Yes, I agree. People need to write their own things and not take credit for something someone else has
written or have worked hard for. 
 I agree since it protects the inventor of their intellectual rights
 I agree since it preserves the efforts of the inventor
 I agree since it punishes those who plagiarize and steals from the original owners
 I agree since it is only fitting to be given the right to manage your invention
 It saves the product of the people's imagination
