[Tim's additional note: This presentation is focused specifically on doing research around social movements and producing findings and contributing new knowledge about how activists use social media and online technologies – there is some very important and detailed quantitative analysis of Twitter discussions around social movements and uprisings which provide critical information about communication online and responses to international events, and my intent is not to discount this work just because it is quant-only – these studies do different things and have different aims, and so the scope of their findings is not the same by extension (I’m not sure that I made this point clearly in the presentation, though).]

Power Shift: The Rise of the Internet and the Fifth Estate. Presentation by Bill Dutton for the Kling Center for Social Informatics in the Department of Informatics and Library Science, School of Informatics and Computing, Indiana University, Bloomington, 13 November 2015.
Hello ! Everyone. Here I am sharing my PowerPoint Presentation on The Mass Communication and Media Studies Paper on the topic " Online Violence and Internet Harassment of Women." I hope it will helpful to you.
In 2013, Development Initiatives-Africa Hub, Open Institute and Development Research, and Training, Uganda carried out a study tracing the evolution of the open data movement in Kenya and Uganda. It aimed at assessing the role that this movement plays in accountability and the equitable allocation of financial resources for the eradication poverty. The study was carried out as part of the Open Data in Developing Countries (ODDC) initiative, which seeks to explore the emerging impacts of open data in developing countries. It is centred on a number of case studies across the world.
Muchiri Nyaggah highlights the key findings from the Kenyan case study.
Emerging platforms are using an evocative form of storytelling, called long form or immersive storytelling experiences, to effectively communicate information with readers. Built specifically for digital consumption, these immersive experiences have gained prominence as a result of The New York Times’ enormously successful piece Snow Fall that covered the 2012 Tunnel Creek avalanche. The piece won a Webby award and the author John Branch won the 2013 Pulitzer for feature writing. Snow Fall was praised as “the future of journalism.” But it’s not all positive; Snow Fall garnered heavy criticism too. Read on to find out what the pattern of modern media consumption reveals about the future of journalism.

Can Social Media, As A Communication Tool, Bring The End Of The Spiral Of Sil...inventionjournals
In the 20th century with the invention of computer technology and the internet, communication revolution gained momentum and it is continuing to accelerate further in the 21st century. These rapid technological developments are forcing a change in society at the same rate. Especially in recent years, as one of the important changes of the communication field, social media has become one of the most effective tools of the internet. Without taking into consideration whether their ideas are the prevailing ones or the minority ones, people have begun to share every idea, so they can create their own public in a very short time and as a result they have the opportunity to announce their ideas to whole world. Social media is an important place in the lives of many people, for some it may even be at the addiction levels. With steadily growth of this created communication area of social networks, it has been questioned whether the spiral of silence as introduced by Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann is still there today. In this study, the facilities offered to individuals by social media as a communication tool, social media as a communication strategy, the spiral of silence in terms of social communication and the impact of social media on spiral of silence will be discussed.

The Political Power
of Social Media
Technology, the Public Sphere, and Political Change
Clay Shirky
On January 17, 2001, during the impeachment trial of Philippine
President Joseph Estrada, loyalists in the Philippine Congress voted
to set aside key evidence against him. Less than two hours after the
decision was announced, thousands of Filipinos, angry that their
corrupt president might be let off the hook, converged on Epifanio
de los Santos Avenue, a major crossroads in Manila. The protest was
arranged, in part, by forwarded text messages reading, "Go 2 edsa.
Wear blk."The crowd quickly swelled, and in the next few days, over
a million people arrived, choking traffic in downtown Manila.
The public s ability to coordinate such a massive and rapid response?
close to seven million text messages were sent that week?so alarmed
the country's legislators that they reversed course and allowed the
evidence to be presented. Estradas fate was sealed; by January 20,
he was gone. The event marked the first time that social media had
helped force out a national leader. Estrada himself blamed "the text
messaging generation" for his downfall.
Since the rise of the Internet in the early 1990s, the world's net
worked population has grown from the low millions to the low billions.
Over the same period, social media have become a fact of life for civil
society worldwide, involving many actors?regular citizens, activists,
nongovernmental organizations, telecommunications firms, software
providers, governments. This raises an obvious question for the
C l ay S h i r k y is Professor of New Media at New York University and
the author of Cognitive Surplus: Creativity and Generosity in a Connected Age.

Social media has emerged as a powerful communication channel to promote actions and raise social awareness. Initiatives through social media are being driven by NGOs to increase the scope and effectiveness of their campaigns. In this paper, we describe the DaTactic2 campaign, which is both an offline and online initiative supported by Oxfam Intermón devised to gather activists and NGOs practitioners and create awareness on the importance of the 2014 European Parliament election. We provide details regarding the background of the campaign, as well as the objectives, the strategies that have been implemented and an empirical evaluation of its performance through an analysis of the impact on Twitter. Our findings show the effectiveness of bringing together relevant actors in an offline event and the high value of creating multimedia content in order to increase the scope and virality of the campaign.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks
