The Impact of Computers for Communications

Computers allow users to communicate with each other over interconnected networks and social media websites. Computers are capable of connecting users to the Internet via phone lines or cable connections, which allow users to exchange information and data. For example, computers are capable of sending messages over a connected network to other computers around the world. Data transfer and messaging are useful ways computers communicate to the world. Some forms of data exchange are Verbal Communication, Written Communication, and Visual communication.

 

A teacher is fired from the school because his facebook profile photo shows him drinking an alcoholic beverage, and he wrote a public post about how lazy his students are. The data is public because everyone knows. I personally believe that the organization didn't have the right to judge him because everyone does their own thing on their own time and that's what they do in their personal life. If drinking isn't affecting his/her job then you shouldn't worry about it. It's not fair because you shouldn't judge anyone on anything they do in their personal life.  A boss sees an employee who called in sick on an important work day that he was needed to be at work. The boss sees a photo on facebook showing the employee partying at a tailgate party on that day. The boss fires the employee. The data is public. The organization does have the right to judge this person because what that person did was out of order. You cannot just call in to work sick, then go to a party and put the pictures on social media where everyone can see it and not expect someone to notice and confront you about it. There isn't any blame. Yes safety is involved. It is fair.
