criteria B

The development through technology has allowed this issue to occur which would probably have a snowball effect and attract more universities to this new advance. Though it does affect the students negatively because that gives them more reason to miss school or miss a lecture. In this case the technology of the iPod, are devices to get homework alerts, answer in-class surveys and quizzes and to check their meal and account balances. There also is very minimal privacy, which may allow other people to easily access private information of the students and professors in the university. This may cause problems, which will distract the students and members of staff who are in charge. There are professional hackers that can easily access information through the Internet, and With the Safari web browser on iPhone, you can surf websites just as you do on your personal computer. You’re not limited to mobile WAP sites. Therefore anyone could hack into the iphone and manipulate or steel valuable/ personal information.
Even though the iPhone and iPod are very trendy and fashionable, there are certain limitations and privacy issues that are concerned. Because you can send and receive email from multiple email accounts on your iPhone. You are at risk that any virus can be sent. Because you are receiving information constantly from your classmates and professors your e-mail address is distributed to a large number of people. This makes it easier for a person to steal or find an iPhone and steal all the personal information, which will result in your e-mail being distributed.
