Computers and Society
(need to be reworded) This chapter examines the impact computers have on our everyday lives.
In its many incarnations, the computer has become ubiquitous and affects our lives in a myriad of ways.
From secure shopping on line to identity theft, from texting while driving to the privacy of our phone calls, from the creative commons and the GPL to copyright law and the DMCA, from CAT scans and MRI’s to medical device malfunctions leading to injury and death, it is impossible to escape the effects of computers on us, our relatives, and friends.  This course will look at good and evil ways computing can be used, and discuss ways to protect oneself from the “evil wily hacker” types.
Topics could include security, privacy, social media, file sharing, government leaks, ethical uses of computing, the ACM code of conduct, and other current issues in the news.
