To use the system of Letter in ink, it is required that the person can use the sight to recognize the lines and strokes that form the letters and can obtain knowledge; for blind people, they need to use another sense, in this case touch, to carry out the reading of information through the Braille system. Nowadays, there is a large amount of information in digital format, managed by informatics systems, where sight in needed to read that information. The development of this conversion system will allow blind people to be integrated into the world of digital information, so that they can access text files, represent them in Braille system and have the ability to read them without any problem; in addition, it will allow these people to express their own ideas, emotions and knowledge by writing them in the system they already know end be converted to the Letter in Ink system so that later, it can be placed on the Internet and used by anyone worldwide

The Right

Privacy, or the right to hold information about oneself in secret (Masuda, 1979; O’Brien & Yasnof, 1999), has become increasingly important in the information society. With the rapid technological advances and the digitalization of information, retrieval of specific records is more rapid; personal information can be integrated into a number of different data files; and copying, transporting, collecting, storing, and processing large amounts of information is easier. Additionally, the advent of the World Wide Web and the fast-paced growth of the Internet have created further cause for concern. The vast amounts of digital information and the pervasiveness of the Internet facilitate new techniques for gathering information—for example, spyware, phishing, and cookies. Hence, personal information is much more vulnerable to being inappropriately used. This article outlines the importance of privacy in an e-commerce environment, the specific privacy concerns individuals may have, antecedents to these concerns, and potential remedies to quell them.

It is only a matter of time before technology emerges to open up a whole new world of opportunities. For example, the invention of the Internet was a development like this that changed the world in almost every theory. Blockchain technology is also one of the emerging technological advances that is expected to change the way transactions are conducted, thus affecting a wide range of potential applications. Blockchain is a distributed software network that works both as a digital logger and a method that allows secure transfer of assets without a mediator. Just as the Internet is a technology that facilitates the flow of digital information, blockchain is a technology that facilitates the digital exchange of digital value. Anything from coins to land titles to votes can be token, stored, and exchanged via a blockchain network.

Modern Myth

The article considers nostalgic representations of the most relevant historical past for modern Russia – the Soviet period in social networks. It is noticeable that the so-called post-memory can be absolutely not identical, and often the opposite of “real” events, that there are as many varied recollections as there are social groups. Moreover, memory may be embodied and preserved in objects and things, and the modern myth is shaped primarily by the mass culture, absorbing the most orthodox stereotypes. The article discussed such socio-cultural and psychological phenomenon as retrotopia. Based on the analysis of some visual and textual materials, it argues that the discourse of retrotopia manifests itself at different levels of linguistic and cultural components. The opposite “anti-Soviet” discourse, on the contrary, is extremely ironic, and may be defined as network kitsch. This article analyzes materials about Soviet realities produced by the Belarusian blogger Maksim Mirovich. As a result, it concludes that the blogger aims not so much to deconstruct myths, but the fight against the illusions of “uncomfortable” consciousness, with the narrow-minded view of the world, thus, the reverse is true. Furthermore, Maxim Mirovich and the USSR fans create the narrative in the context of the so-called post-truth: each of the opponents constructs his own model of the world, in which the “truth/false” opposition has secondary importance. Generally, Internet materials about Soviets can be presented as a semantic game, juggling with mass concepts, filling the Internet space with meanings, rather than an ideological confrontation.

Article Analyse

The article considers the slang of the fashion industry, systemization of slang units by speakers, as well as the main difficulties in translating English fashion slang into Ukrainian. It turns out that the vocabulary of fashion industry slang is enriched in epoch-making moments, important for the state as a reaction to turning points in history and to the emergence of new social phenomena. The article proves that fashion slang unites a large number of social groups: people working in the fashion industry, who create trends and fashionable novelties; fashion distributors and fashion buyers and even forms a new social group around them ‒ hypebeasts. The authors of the article analyse the slang of the fashion world through the prism of its interdependence and interaction with social networks and the Internet as a communicative space. Such methods of word formation of fashion slang units as metaphorization, word formation, appearance of telescopies have been considered in this scientific article. The presented research paper proposes to classify fashion slang by different groups of people who are somehow related to fashion, and thus cause the emergence of new slang units, forming their own kind of fashion slang, taking into account the peculiarities of their activities. It is emphasized that the basis for the formation of new slang of the fashion industry is the slang of young people mad about fashion, who build their own cult around it. The article also considers the most common ways of translating hypebeasts slang, such as transcoding (mixed and adaptive ones), transcription and transliteration.

The Internet is one of the newest and most powerful media that enables the transmission of digital information and communication across the world, although there is still a digital divide between and within countries for its availability, access, and use. To a certain extent, the level and rate of Web diffusion reflects its nature as a complex structure subject to positive network externalities and to an exponential number of potential interactions among individuals using the Internet. In addition, the Web is a network that evolves dynamically over time, and hence it is important to define its nature, its main characteristics, and its potential.

Cyber Crimes

Cyber law is law of the Internet; hence, any crime on the Internet is basically cyber crime. It is committed on cyber space, but all the pre mediation is an act of individual/s, who are the perpetrators of crime with malicious intentions and commission of these acts. Cyber crimes were initially perceived as a subset of Information Technology (IT) laws, which governed the digital dissemination of both digitalized information and software. Digital information includes information security and electronic commerce. However, as the world became subservient to digitalization, cyber/Internet laws became more pronounced in their origin and are now a special branch of Internet laws. These laws include study of Internet access and usage, privacy rights, freedom of expression, and extra territorial jurisdiction issues. This chapter analyzes the cyber laws in India and raises the issues of criticality of provisions relating to dispute resolution in India.

In this era of globalization, technology develops increasingly advanced to make it easier for people to do various activities in life, one with the Internet. With the internet everyone can communicate with people who are in different parts of the world. Through this media they can obtain and convey various information needed anytime and anywhere. Nowadays the internet is not only used to obtain information, but it can be used as a medium to do business by building a website. Universities at this time like or dislike should be accustomed to the pattern of promotion online using the website, because the website serves as one of the most efficacious promotional tools and most efficient when compared to Traditional way of marketing. An online system application that can make it easier to convey a large amount of information and feature the superiority of the university is the expected outcome of this research. Nevertheless, the application of this system also still has a lack of facilities and appearance, so it still requires a lot of refinement.

The last 10 years has seen a phenomenal growth in the internet which is currently used by over 200 million people around the world, including 12.5 million in the UK (NUA, 2000). This rapid growth is set to continue and by the end of the year most of Britain's 24 million mobile phone users will be able to access the web through the latest generation of telephones (Daily Telegraph, 6 January 2000). This growth in popularity stems from the internet's ease of use and the huge amount of information from around the globe that can be accessed 24 hours a day. Success has, of course, brought problems and the internet has been criticised for being slow, for containing inaccurate and even dangerous material and for being a home to viruses waiting to attack unwary surfers.

Consider this: you’re moving to a new country and you have to fit everything into a single suitcase. Your airline is being very stringent in this situation and you don’t want to give them the satisfaction of paying more fees! So, what can you do? You could spend weeks trying to fit it all in, trying different ways to organise everything, but sometimes there’s just too much stuff. Well, why not try a completely new, lighter, bigger suitcase? In my research, I try to think the same way about optical fibres. The basis of my PhD is the development of high-capacity optical communications systems based on new types of optical fibres. In optical communications, digital information is transmitted via optical fibres. Similar to our nervous system, which sends information to different parts of our body via electrical pulses, optical fibres transmit information throughout the world using pulses of light. These ...
