Lab log #3

Question 3:
There are literally an infinite amount of arguments that could be waged over this. You have your over-bearing mothers who think that what would be better then no storage space would be no computer in the first place (And they also probably wouldn’t know which computer part is a storage device in the first place, barring it coming up and biting them in the butt). Then you have the nerds who think a terabyte is hardly enough to run solitaire on. But really, in reality, it’s not a question of how much we need, it’s a matter of if we need it in the first place (This follwing bit essentially goes against everything I love about computers, also known as shooting myself in the foot). We got on just fine without computers. Oh sure, they’ve certainly been helpful, but they don’t provide sustinence, (Unless you shop online) nor are they able to provide the pleasurable company which we require to procreate. Assuming we actually needed a computer though, there is no true answer to the stated question. Everyone has their own specific needs, one person might just have it to write reports on, another might need a couple terabytes of memory because they have a massive gaming rig, and don’t forget that companys need literally hundreds or even thousands of terabytes to play host to all of the information that they need to store. In truth, most people have more computer memory then they’ll ever use, therefore, we long ago surpassed the minimum requirement that the average consumer would need for their personal computer.
Question 4:
When you send a company your personal information, it should remain confidential. The less eyes that see it, the better. Now, some people may just not care, but most of the human populace would probably get the creeps if they found out that any random person could be looking at their personal files. Some have secrets to hide, others may be worried about their personal information being used against them, mabye others are just simply shy (In a sense). However, if theres one thing that’s worse then letting others see your personal documents, it’s selling them to the highest bidder. While this may not seem as bad, taking into account that less people will look at them, learning that people are profiting off your secrets would be nerve-racking enough, never mind worrying about who’s hands they’re in. There is no reason why a company shoul give away it’s clients peronsal files, for free or not.
I could let you see my personal files, but then I would have to kill you.
