9. Digital Commerce


History of e-commerce:

E-commerce is the buying and selling of goods and services, over an electronic network, mainly the Internet. Over the centuries technology has improved thus making it easier to do that hand-to-hand trading.

Importance of being informed

Before purchasing something online it is important to know what you are buying. These purchases are seen as an investment and have different categories which they can be divided into, such as: higher quality investments, safe investments, money saving investments, ethical investments and responsible investments. (The Independent Institute of Education, 2015)


If one does not know what they are buying this could lead to a loss of finances and receiving of inferior quality products.

Children

Physical issues:

These problems result from one sitting in front of the computer all day, usually with bad posture.


Psychological issues

6. Digital Security

There are many types of risks when it comes to digital security. When it comes to computers/laptops/tablets etc. these devices can be affected by malicious malware. There are sub categories of this Malicious Software, namely: Bot, Adware, Bugs and Rootkits.    These programs run in the background without you even knowing it.

The risks of T&C’s are that they are often very long and people usually don’t read them.


Different types of Cyber-crimes

-Hacking: a person’s computer is “broken into” and his personal information can be accessed (Cross Domain Solutions, 2015)

-Theft: when a person’s steals and downloads music/movies/games and software. This is a copyright violation. (Cross Domain Solutions, 2015)


-Cyber stalking: online harassment and stalking.  (Cross Domain Solutions, 2015)


-Child abuse: criminals talk to minors on social media/online dating and get them to send photos of themselves. (Cross Domain Solutions, 2015)
