#6 How important is it to be civil online on the Internet?

Unlike previous times, the world is now connected through the Internet. So we can communicate with other people through the Internet as much as we want. However, it is not easy to maintain public order on the Internet as it is easy to communicate. The laws that we abide by in the offline world don't really apply much to the Internet. On the Internet, anonymous people spread abusive language or false rumors, or illegally distribute data. However, thorough monitoring of these acts or the application of the law is less. The reason why civic awareness on the Internet is important is to maintain this public order. The right citizenship on the Internet ensures the accuracy and reliability of information.

What I would like to discuss with you is whether government intervention is necessary to correctly induce this sense of citizenship on the Internet. For example, the government is introducing a real-name system to prevent anonymous people from doing anything inappropriate on the Internet. What do you think about this?

    I am against the real-name system on the Internet. The Internet is a place where I can freely express my opinions regardless of race or religion. As much as people have free discussions, so do conflicts of opinion. If the real-name system is used on the Internet, when opinions conflict occurs, there can be situations in which conflicts. But I think government regulation is necessary for things like Revenge porn.

Discuss Reagle’s chapters 3-4

Discuss Reagle’s chapters 3-4 I read the Reagle's chapters 3-4. I find two opinion. One thing is how to collaborate people on Wikipedia. Other is how to make open community on Wikipedia. How to collaborate people on Wikipedia. In the case of the English Wikipedia, there is a collaborative culture that asks its participants to assume two postures: a stance of neutral point of view on matters of knowledge, and a stance of good faith toward one’s fellow contributors. I think that people know the mood that must keep the rule on Wikipedia. If Wikipedia's mood is light, people write the light writing. Other is how to make open community on Wikipedia. I remember the discussion that Why the Women is smaller that the men on Wikipedia. I've heard from others the reason that women don't use it much because the community isn't friendly to women. I think that we try to create Wikipedia to use all the people no matter that the sex. I think it's a process ...

Discuss Reagle's Chapter3-4

In  the Reagle  Chapter 3-4, the troll and the ignore rules were impressive.  Troll is the one who destroys teamwork and leads the team to ruin.  Trolls, which are negative characters, help develop Wikipedia. Wikipedia finds the wrong information generated by the troll. And the information is modified by others. In that process, it results in more information production. There is an outlaw, similar to a troll. The lawless ignores all regulations, including copyright and reference. Like Trolls, they help develop Wikipedia. They are free to edit because they are out of regulation. The free edited content is modified by others, including attaching references and deleting content that is caught in copyright issues. Wikipedia develops as it takes care of these types of people.

Discuss Reagle’s chapter 5

Discuss Reagle’s chapter 5 It is hard to understand this chapter. When I used the Wikipedia, I thought I don't need to group communication. Because the communication space is hidden, so I don't find it. I'm hard to find the communication space on Wikipedia. I think that the Wikipedia communication is not good at working in Korea. There are not many advisers on Korea Wikipedia. The Wiktionary definitions for consensus speak of “general agreement,” “without active opposition to the proposed course of action. I found it important for members to reach an agreement on Wikipedia. It's not an easy task, but I think it can produce a good results. So I think that's why Wikipedia exists. It can appear in a chat window, and go and talk to the other person's chat room. Perhaps it ends up as a personal versus personal matter, but I think that's also an agreement. If conversation does not take place, I don't think an agreement is reached either. Wiki...
