The five most serious violations that people commit online I think are Faking your identity, Bullying and Trolling, Sharing Passwords, Addresses or photos of others, Illegal Internet searches and collecting information about children. The reason faking your identity is bad because people do that to steal people’s money or commit crimes which hold the persons who identity they stole to be held accountable it can easily destroy someone’s life and it is hard to fix. Bullying and Trolling is something that is pretty common online now and it can be very dangerous because people have been known to commit suicide because of it. Collecting information about children is a big one because no one needs to have personal information on children except the parents and children’s information can be used to commit a number of crimes. Illegal searches on the internet is another big one because there is some information that should not be on the internet but is and people should not be trying to find it this ties in with information about children, illegal searches are just bad all the way around. Sharing passwords, addresses and photos of others is bad because that’s someone else’s information and should not be shared and ties into everything else listed here. The article talks about using VPNs and everything to protect yourself from some of this stuff but it’s a two-way street here yes, they can protect innocent people accidently making an incorrect search, but it also protects criminals doing it intentionally.

In the comic “What’s so Funny About Truth Justice and The American way?” Superman is faced with the Elite. The Elite is a group of enhanced beings that think they are heroes because they are ridding the world of criminals by killing them. Their thought on why they believe this is okay is reinforced by the people that cheer for them and think they are doing the right thing. But Superman knows this is wrong, at least for him in his mind.

Immanuel Kant’s view that someone could do something that is good but for the wrong reasons is still wrong. In the comic, a kid dressed as Superman says, “I can’t kill, but you can kill me! How can I stop you if I can’t kill?” which tells Superman that people are starting to think that killing criminals is the only way to stop them. Superman sees killing as wrong even if they are bad people that are killed to make the world better, and it is still wrong to kill. He never bends on his moral standing, even if it means he must die for his beliefs. Superman stands up to the Elite first by trying to show them they can fight criminals without killing them. This backfired a bit because the elite knew the criminals Superman caught would do it again and again. Superman’s response was that he would stop them again and again until they understood that its wrong. Superman held to Kant’s imperative by doing what was right not just for him but for others. If killing is wrong and a crime. Then killing is wrong and a crime even for those that kill people for the good of others.

 This is a view the Elite did not share. They believed that killing the bad guys would make them the good guys. They also thought they could get Superman to agree with their line of thinking.  They went around killing many people, saying it was for the sake of others, and called themselves heroes for it. Not knowing this made them no better than the bad guys they killed. Committing a crime to prevent a crime is still wrong. They became the very thing they were trying to get rid of. There is no justification for it. Superman wins the fight by getting Black to believe Superman killed his team and calls Superman a hypocrite. Superman only made it look like he did to beat them at their own game and to make his point even more vital. That he would not bend on his moral reasoning that killing is wrong and that there is always another way to fight criminals without becoming one yourself, Black said he would come after Superman as long as he still lives. Superman replies, “I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Because he knows that no matter what, he will stop him or die trying because it is the right thing to do, not just for him but for everybody.

The Mother of Invention goes over how people treat each other based on their choices or understanding of each other. In Anwuli’s case, her friends and family judged her and shunned her for her relationship with a married man. Although what she did on the outside seems morally wrong to her friends and family. None of them even bothered to listen to her side of the story. How she should have been treated is far different than how everyone around her treated her.

              The way Anwuli should have been treated by her neighbors, friends, and family should have been with respect and care. They should not have judged her and listened to her side of what happened. She was the one that was deceived and seduced by a married man, yet they took his word for what happened and blamed her. They should have helped her and listened to her, especially her family. They should never have abandoned her for what took place and been there to welcome her baby into the world.

              Anwuli’s neighbors, friends, and family did not act in a caring way. Instead, they acted in a way that we see people do all too commonly today. They were judgmental and assumed the worse of her. They would not even let her explain her side of the story. By being judgmental, they sought justice for her ex-fiancé, the married man that did her wrong. So, they chose to shun her and block her on social media as punishment for the crime they assumed they thought she had committed. They did not try to fix or change their actions to improve the relationship so that they could flourish as a family, friend, or neighbor; instead, they just abandoned her.

              Anwuli’s fiancé should have treated her with respect despite his deception; he should have taken responsibility for his actions. He should have shown her that he cared about her and his child’s well-being. Despite his moral failure to be faithful to his wife, he should have ensured the safety of Anwuli and his soon-to-be baby and protected her. He should have taken her to the hospital despite his wife’s say on the matter. He failed when he left her alone and gave people a reason to judge her for something she did not do but for what he did to her. If he had given her the respect and care she gave him, they could have both handled the situation better and improved the whole situation. His actions led to her being alone with no one to talk to or help her with his child.

              The house Obi 3 showed more caring than anyone around Anwuli even though it did not have emotion. The house recognized the needs that needed to be fulfilled and tended to those needs for her, unlike everyone else around her, who ignored her, and her needs based on their judgment about her. They deemed her better off dead. Obi 3 exhibited caring behavior because it was designed to do just that protect the people inside the house. It did not judge her or her actions. Just like Anwuli’s body or any female body is designed to care for and protect a fetus before birth. It is not emotional; it is just how it was designed, just like how our bodies are designed to sustain life without judgment.

              The video Obi 3 plays show that despite the past faults about the oil extraction, the peri grass was created to apologize for what they did to the land. It was also an attempt to make up for the damage they had created while extracting the oil. It shows that they care about the Nigerian people. They took responsibility for their actions from the past so they all could grow together.
