A framework for parental control of mobile devices in South AfricaMarais, Jacques January 2012 (has links)
Future generations are built on the children of today. Thus, children's well- being and safety is of paramount importance. Children are making use of mobile devices, such as smart phones, to gain access to the Internet and other data driven mobile services. Children and parents alike are unaware of the risks they are exposed to when accessing such services. A clear lack of parental control over or awareness of this mobile use has been identified in South Africa. Without adequate awareness and successful use of a comprehensive mobile parental control solution, South African children may be at risk. This risk may include exposure to potentially harmful content and/or individuals. This dissertation presents a framework that supports the attainment of a comprehensive mobile parental control solution based on sound research.

Previous issue date: 2017-10-31 / Digital activism or netativism is a recent advent and expression of the political exercise of
users of the cyber world, especially of social networks. One of its types refers to the
manifestations of the consumers against the companies through denunciations of crimes and
attempt to promote boycott against them, in order to positive results for the collective. In this
sense, consumption is seen as an area to political exercise, and this type of practice is even
more democratized and accessible through social networks. The present study reflects about
the reconfiguration of consumerism, very recently impacted by consumer netativism.
Consumerism is a sociological term that names the set of consumer practices in order to
exercise power, conquest, maintenance of rights and resistance to the commercial interests of
the companies. The object of research is the manifestations of consumer indignation on
Facebook between the years 2012 and 2017. For that, was conducted netnography, through
monitoring the clashes between consumers and businesses on Facebook. In this sense, the
study analyzes consumerism in the form of netativism, as a device of power, as well as
consumption, both situated in the concept of biopolitics developed by Foucault / O ativismo digital ou netativismo é um advento recente e expressão do exercício político dos
usuários do mundo cibernético, em especial das redes sociais. Uma de suas modalidades
refere-se às manifestações dos consumidores contra as empresas através de denúncias de
delitos e tentativa de promover boicote contra elas, a fim de resultados positivos para o
coletivo. Nesse sentido, o consumo é visto como um terreno propício ao exercício político,
sendo que esse tipo de prática é ainda mais democratizada e acessível através das redes
sociais. O presente estudo trata sobre a reconfiguração do consumerismo, muito recentemente
impactado pelo netativismo de consumidores. O consumerismo é um termo sociológio que
nomea o conjunto de práticas de consumidores a fim do exercício de poder, conquista,
manutenção de direitos e resistência frente aos interesses comerciais das empresas. O objeto
de pesquisa aborda as manifestações de indignação dos consumidores no Facebook entre os
anos de 2012 e 2017. Para tanto, foi realizada netnografia, através de acompanhamento e
monitoramento dos embates no Facebook entre consumidores e empresas. Neste sentido, o
estudo analisa o consumerismo sob a forma de netativismo e as relaçãoes de consumo, como
dispositivos de poder, ambos situados no conceito de biopolítica desenvolvido por Foucault

My intention for this show is to explore the effect of alienation that ironically is being
produced by social media. The principal concept is developed around shame, sharing, and
notoriety on three different social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and
Telegram. This show explores the social media perception of myself in the realms of
human interaction, identity, and memory in social media through the critical
appropriation of the languages of design and photography. The installation with four
Facebook profile pictures in large scale and framed looks at the way a personal image can
convey the impression of widely different personalities. The selections of personal
exchanges over Facebook and Instagram show the degree to which social media creates
its own visual language and mode of communication, which sometimes becomes
separated from reality and intention. The show extends its reach to performance and
direct interaction with the viewer through the availability of stickers for comments by the profile pictures and a third area, where viewers can write or draw their own messages
through the simple medium of chalk, which can then be rendered in virtual form through
posts on a specially created webpage. The viewer should thus be challenged to ask, to
what degrees do words and images communicate the essence of our selves and our own
will. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.F.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2016. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Previous issue date: 2018-07-02 / The ideas generated in any locality soon accede the virtual space. They spread and are concretized in different places, be it a business room, a factory floor, a schoolyard, a family house or even in streets and public spaces. At the turn of the century, several large-scale protest demonstrations took the streets of urban centers around the world and an unprecedented element could be perceived among its agents: the intensive association of protesters with communication networks, which have as main characteristic the abundance and high-speed circulation of information. However,in the midst of so many transformations and novelties, digital information and communication technologies remain, to some extent, surrounded by unknowns about their potentialities, properties and functions in the context of contemporary democracy, as well as the cultural consequences of their application, reason which expresses the urgency to reflect on its nature and form of participation in collective dynamics, political mobilizations and social movements. This research analyzes the role played by digital communication networks in protests occurred in the city of São Paulo in June 2013, in order to delineate, analyze and understand some of the characteristics of its successful way to disseminate information and its power to persuade and engage citizens that were not previously linked to cultural-political groups or social movements. In sum, it is proposed to investigate how and why the ICTs used in digital communication networks have assumed a preponderant role in June’s disputes and to raise interpretations about their nature and the issues ofcommunicationin contemporary society. The methodology of the work assumes hybrid formulation between bibliographic research, documentary analysis and, consequently, conceptual articulation, from which the analyzes were carried out / As ideias geradas em qualquer localidade logo acedem ao espaço virtual. Disseminam-se e se concretizam em diferentes lugares, seja uma sala de empresa, um chão de fábrica, um pátio de escola, um cômodo da casa ou, ainda, as ruas e espaços públicos das cidades. Na virada do século, diversas manifestações reivindicatórias de grandes proporções tomaram as ruas de centros urbanos em todo o mundo e um elemento inédito pode ser percebido entre seus agentes: a associação intensiva das redes de comunicação, cuja marca característica versa sobre a abundância e aceleração da circulação de informações. Em meio a tantas transformações e novidades, entretanto, as tecnologias de informação e comunicação digitais permanecem, em certa medida, cercadas por incógnitas a respeito de suas potencialidades, propriedades e funções no contexto da democracia contemporânea; além das consequências culturais de sua aplicação, motivo pelo qual se expressa a urgência da necessidade de refletir sobre sua natureza e forma de participação nas dinâmicas coletivas, mobilizações políticas e movimentos sociais. Esta pesquisa analisa o papel desempenhado pelas redes de comunicação digitais nas manifestações ocorridas na cidade de São Paulo, em junho de 2013, a fim de delinear, analisar e compreender algumas das características desse modelo exitoso na difusão de informações, convencimento e engajamento de manifestantes não vinculados diretamente a coletivos político-culturais ou membros dos movimentos sociais. Em suma, propõe-se investigar como e porque as TICs utilizadas em redes digitais de comunicação assumiram papel preponderante nas disputas de junho e levantar interpretações acerca de sua natureza e de questões comunicacionais da sociedade contemporânea. A metodologia do trabalho assume formulação híbrida entre pesquisa bibliográfica, análise documental e, consequentemente, articulação conceitual, a partir das quais foram realizadas as análises
