Hi fellow Tek fans!
I'm a high school senior who recently needed to do a boycotting project. In this project, I had to pick a company(ies) to boycott based on something I felt that the company was doing wrong, or that the company could do better. I chose any and all companies associated with the NSA. This project was done in three stages.
* Planning Stage
I had to fill out this long drawn out paper that you can see here.
* Doing Stage
My website, which I ask you visit and check out here.
* Review Stage
This is the paragraph i turned in showing what I did and why I did it. I had to turn this in after my website:
For this project, I decided to create a website. In this website, I created a simple homepage with a little information about the boycott. Another page was dedicated to showing the companies we are boycotting and the reasons why we are boycotting. A final page showed links to information about the NSA, their programs, and why boycotting these companies will help us win the fight against the NSA.
My method was effective because everyone flocks to the internet for information. It has become a central hub in our lives. I posted links to major websites such as Reddit and Tek Syndicate as well as forums and IRC chat channels where the topic of the NSA and PRISM would be according the terms of service as well as relevant and appropriate.
With this project, I learned a lot about how the NSA was formed as well as how it operates. I also learned about whistle blowers such as Edward Snowden, and some of the operations done both with and without consent and leaked classified information. Overall this project was very interesting to research and intrigued me because it affects not just me, but those around me as well.
Thanks for reading this all! Please help me out!
