Help! I can't find my IPhone!-11
I own an IPhone. When I first got it I lost it all the time. Not even
realizing it, I would leave my phone places. When I would finally
realize that it was gone I always became frantic but I would eventually
find it in an obvious place. When my mom got her IPhone she left it in
my car with the doors unlocked. Of course someone stole it but luckily
for us, we had the “Find My IPhone” app. It located her phone and we
were able to get it back within a couple of days. I can see where this
could raise some questions about privacy, but just like the man in the
video said you are the only one with access to this app. If you lose
your phone, you are the one with the ability to find it. I think it was
cool that he used social media as a way of helping him find his phone as
well. We can relate that to our previous conversations about social
media. It is becoming something bigger even to the point of helping
someone you just follow on twitter find his or her lost item. These can
all raise questions of privacy but if you know the people you are
following and can regulate these things it shouldn’t be that big of a
problem. I feel like a lot of cyber stalking comes from within your
friend group. I was cyber bullied when I was in middle school. It ended
up being one of my best friends. I was so hurt but I didn’t realize how
many people are bullied like this every day. It’s a scary thought but
that’s why privacy is so important, especially on social media sites
where you are posting so much about your life.
