After reading 《CRITICAL DIGITAL PEDAGOGY: A DEFINITION》, I agree with the author that current education is influenced by politics, capital, etc. In the era of developed Internet, we are easily instigated by the Internet and the media. The Internet is supposed to provide more  convenient channels for us to fetch information, but many non-objective, inflammatory and misleading information has become mainstream that we cannot find the information we actually need. Being able to look at things objectively is one of the few precious virtues in this era. This has also led to many contradictions that should not have been created by the media.

But at the same time, I do not think that the internet is useless. Nowadays, in many fields, artificial intelligence and big data analysis are extremely dependent on the network. In the future, the network and computers will enter almost all fileds of job to provide convenience for us.

I strong disagree with Bloom’s idea, which is collecting data from students. I had similar idea with Apple on this point. A few years ago, a criminal who was using an iPhone was arrested by the FBI. When the FBI asked Apple to unlock the phone, Apple said aloud “No”, And issued a statement saying that Apple has no ability or backdoor to unlock anyone’s iPhone. Alought unlock that phone may help FBI to find other criminal and stop the potential harm, but I think unless the criminal agrees to unlock the phone, there should not be other way for FBI or government to get the infromation from that phone. Once you gave the way to spy on other people’s information, then “they” will make the excuese to keep spy on your phone again and again, and shortly after, it is illegal to not allow sharing your personal information with “them”.
