Privacy Research Questions:
1. Is the Patriot Act constitutional?
2. Does family privacy permit
domestic violence?
3. Is DNA Identification ethical?
I find that using Wikipedia comes a little easier than GVRL likely due to my familiarity with it. On the other hand, I can see that GVRL will be a more reliable source with more accurate information. The GVRL takes a little more effort to uncover something. I never really narrowed my topic down adequately. I like the DNA question but still think it's a little broad. I would need to narrow it down to a specific context. Wikipedia is definitely useful for getting ideas quickly. The Iris tutorial were really helpful and informative as well. I found the information on the Deep Web and Subject Encyclopedia to be most helpful.

Rick,
ReplyDeleteNice work. You did a nice job summing up the differences between the two resources we explored this week. You can see why one would be acceptable for scholarly research/class papers and the other is not recommended.
As for your questions, they seem interesting and I don't know enough about DNA identification to know if this is too narrow or broad, is this in a medical, governmental context, personal? How would the information be used which obviously leads to the ethics part of the question.
Glad you found the information on Deep Web and exploring GVRL to be educational and useful for the future.
