Social and Ethical Issues
Authenticity- using certain image editing software may require you to use a password to use them so as to prevent illegal distribution of copyrighted material.
Digital Citizenship- files of images can be sent through email, when a person opens the image to view it, it can release viruses into the computer; this is a danger to that person's information.
Digital Divide/Equality of Access- green screen is a computer method of imputing a background into a video or image; typically only accessible by those who are IT rich versus IT poor.
Globalization- making creative documents on files about a certain subject or place attracts people to view them and become more informed or interested about said subject/place.
Integrity- lossy compression changes the coding of the pixels in an image to save the file easier, therefore, with too many changes, the image quality is lost and it is technically not the original image.
Intellectual Property- CGI or computer generated images are the created images of a user who manipulated graphics to form the images he or she desired.
People and Machines- desktop publishing facilitates the ability to make professional looking documents or other files; people can get too reliant on these types of software and not be able to create these files without the assistance of this software.
Policies- copyright is the protection of intellectual property, organizations set limits to how people use the creations of other people.
Reliability- blue screen, if a computer crashes, a blue error screen appears signifying that the system is no longer reliable and possibly no longer even functional.
Standards and Protocols- jpeg, a lossy file format for images; a standard format that allows people to view the images on different machines.
Surveillance- pixels per inch is the resolution of a camera, when recording someone for surveillance, the quality of the video depends on the pixels per inch.
