Management Platforms and Tools >>>

Management Platforms and Tools…

First looking at this I took a small guess at what it might be and was not to far off. There are many subcategories of this main topic and I would like to talk about a few brief ones.

First one is Tracking---
            Your phone goes with you everywhere you go, so that means your cellular company knows exactly where you are at all times. I always have location services on because I like the way my apps run, knowing that I am in a certain location so they can narrow down my search options to what’s near me or trending in my area. Many of my friends are more private and don’t like to be tracked or have apps identify their location. I mean what are they going to do??? Come find me and say we found you because location services where on…. We already stalked a classmate and found out information that most of them thought was private or no that in depth. I mean if I tried hard enough I could find anyone’s address I really needed to. So next time an app asks you to turn on location services just do it …


Next I would like to talk about aggregators.
            Do you ever notice an add on the side of your screen that happens to be the same shirt from the website you where looking at a few days ago… Well they are trying to get your attention and bring you back to their website to purchase the shirt and make the money off of you. For me this happens all the time, I am constantly shopping online and ordering from amazon. I always see things while I am searching the Internet while I am supposed to be doing homework that catches my eye. Why, because I have looked at it before. I think this is really clever because they are marketing the exact thing that you want.

  2. Like you said, I doubt your cell phone company will stalk you but it is a little weird to know they could figure out where you are all the time.
