OLD MEDIA IN THE
INTERNET AGE
 CHANGES THAT THE INTERNET
HAS BROUGHT IN CONVENTIONAL
MEDIA
THE WEB HAS HAD A DISRUPTIVE INFLUENCE ON CONVENTIONAL MEDIA. GOOGLE IS
THE NEW KING OF THE MEDIA, SURPASSING TELEVISION AND CABLE NETWORKS,
NEWSPAPER CHAINS, AND MAGAZINES AS THE NUMBER ONE VEHICLE FOR
ADVERTISING. Londrina Shadow
CRAIGLIST SIPHONS OFF CLASSIFIED ADS THAT WERE ONCE THE LIFEBLOOD OF

Vast Shadow
TABLETS DRAIN REVENUES FROM MAGAZINE PUBLISHERS AND VIDEO PRODUCERS WHO FIND
THAT THEY HAVE TO CUT DEALS WITH THE LIKES OF APPLE, AMAZON, AND HULU TO GET
THEIR DIGITAL PRODUCTS SEEN.
FACEBOOK HAS EVOLVED INTO A PORTAL THAT MANY INTERNET USERS ENTER DAILY AND
NEVER LEAVE, SUBTRACTING EYEBALLS AND ADVERTISING REVENUES FROM ONLINE
PROVIDERS.
MOVIE AND VIDEO GAME RENTAL OUTLETS AND SMALL BOOKSTORES HAVE BEEN CLOSED
BY THE THOUSANDS, NO LONGER ABLE TO COMPETE WITH THE CONVENIENCE AND PRICES
OF ONLINE DISTRIBUTORS.
NETFLIX COMPETES HEAD TO HEAD WITH HOME BOX TO BE THE LEADING PAY TV SERIES.
MANY CONVENTIONAL MEDIA OUTLETS ARE ADOPTING THE PHILOSOPHY OF “IF YOU CANT
BEAT THEM, JOIN THEM.”
 SOME NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES HAVE TRANSFORMED TO ONLINE ONLY
PUBLICATIONS OR SMARTPHONE APPS. FOR EXAMPLE NEARLY A MILLION BOOKS ARE
AVAILABLE FOR AMAZONS KINDLE E-BOOK. LEGAL MUSIC SERVICES SUPPORTED BY
AD SALES OR SUBSCRIPTION FEES HAVE THE BLESSINGS OF MAJOR RECORD LABELS,
TELEVISION NETWORKS ESTABLISH THEIR OWN STREAMING SERVICES AND COUNT ON
RIGHT FEES FROM ONLINE PROVIDERS TO STAY IN BUSINESS. MILLION OF HOURS OF
VIDEOS ARE AVAILABLEFOR STREAMING ONLINE, SO MANY THAT VIDEO TRAFFIC
ALREADY ACCOUNTS FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE ONLINE CONTENT THAT CONSUMERS
ACCESS AND COULD ACCOUNT FOR AS MUCH AS 90 PERCENT IN A FEW YEARS ( CISCO,
2015).
 THAT IS NOT TO SAY THAT OLD MEDIA ARE DEAD ANALOG VINYL RECORDS AND BOOKS PRINTED ON
PAPER ARE MAKING COMEBACKS AS NICHE PRODUCTS, FOR EXAMPLE. HOWEVER , ONLINE DIGITAL MEDIA
POSSESS SOME DISTINCT ADVANTAGES. ONLINE MEDIA CAN BE CONSUMED ALMOST ANYWHERE, ANY TIME
OVER A VARIETY OF DEVICES, INLUDING THE SMARTPHONE IN YOUR POCKET. THE NEW MEDIA CAN
FATTEN THEIR REVENUES FROM GLOBAL MARKETS, WITNESS FACEBOOKS 1.5 BILLION USERS, AND
NETFLIX EXPANSION INTO 130 COUNTRIES.

INTERNET BASED MEDIA COMPANIES ALSO KNOW A LOT MORE ABOUT THEIR AUDIENCES THAN
CONVENTIONAL MEDIA DO BY COMPILING VAST DATA BASES OF USER BEHAVIOR THAT HAVE VALUE
TO ADVERTISERS AND HELP ONLINE MEDIA PRODUCE ORIGINAL CONTENT WITH PREDICTABLE
APPEAL.
REINVENTING THE
INTERNET
The Internet has been repeatedly reinvented, from a
Cold War weapon , to a medium of scientific exchange, to
a public information resource, to an online shopping
plaza, to a conduit for social interaction , and to a digital
amusement center.
 The Internet continues to be all of those things, but where it was
headed?
The once-prevalent Internet ideal of a global community, open to all, is under attck
from bad behavior in several quarters. Corporate domination is one possibility. We
could trade the hegemony of Big Media conglomerates like Disney and Viacom who
ruled our first (i.e., television) screen for the hegemony of Big Data companies like
Alphabet ( as Google is now known) , Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Netflix who
would like to rule the second (computer) and third (smartphone) screens.
 Government regulators are trying to keep the playing field
level. A proposed merger between Comcast and Time-Warner
Cable was shot down over concerns that the deal would
concentrate ownership of too much of the U.S. broadband
Internet market. However, in 2016 Charter Cable´s acquisition
of Time-Warner Cable was approved, furthe concentrating
ownership of broadband cable networks in the United
States.
 In 2015, the FCC issued a landmark net neutrality decision that aims to prevent Internet service
providers like Comcast and Charter from providing preferential access to their subsidiaries and
business partners.

a A more subtle problem with corporations in control is that they tend to erect walls around the
Internet content Social media apps, like Facebook, snatch eyeballs away from conventional media and
the Web alike. Although the front door to Facebook can be reached through the Web , once inside
users are in a “ walled garden.” Content is still delivered over the Internet, but not through our Web
browsers, and it is “off limits” to search engines.

Facebook and other social media are part of a growing web. That term refers to the Web
content that is hidden behind pay walls or user log-ins where search engines and
inquiring cannot easily find.
Criminal behavior is anothe threat. Deeper still the “dark Web,” consisting of clandestine sites like Silk Road where
illegal drug transactions are arranged and stolen files of credit card numbers are exchanged among international
rings of cyber criminals. Dark websites are hosted on hidden servers , their content is protected by encryption, and
their Web addresses are circulated only among the criminals.

Terror groups solicit other forms of criminal activity in the name of their causes, complete with do-it-yourself bomb-
making instructions. Some of the criminals are apparently sponsored by nation-states that organize online raids on the
commercial and military secrets of other countries and dabble in sabotage. This raises the specter of cyberwarfare
that could cripple the Internet and the global economy that relies on it.

In 2016, the United States launched a campaign cyberattacks aimed at disrupting communications and operations of
Islamic militants. This could bring the Internet full cycle back to its origins as a weapon of war

Nations, including the United States, are behaving badly online in other ways that affect the future of the
Internet.
There is a technology challenge from mobiles. Social media, and indeed all Internet-based
services, face competition from “third screen” mobile applications , leading Facebook to
acquire the WhatsApp mobile messaging service and to move aggressively into mobile
social networking.
There will be soon be a glacial shift in the user paradigm in the majority if Internet traffic
originates from mobile devices rather than from personal computers (Cisco, 2015)
 Perhaps the bad behavior of criminals, corporations,
and governments is having an impact?

We should not ignore our own bad behavior either: cyberbullying, trolling, partisan
screeching, and oversharing online may be driving users away. Others may be turned off
by hacker, attacks privacy invasions, incessant advetising intrusions, or the cost of cable
Internet “bundles” and smartphone data plans. However, it may also be that when asked
whether they use the Internet or not, some respondents to the government surveys do
not realize that when using social media and other apps on their smartphones they are
actually using the Internet.

at ever high speeds, by the software
that runs the Internet applications,
and by changes in the rules, or
protocols, that are used in
International transactions.
 INTERNET TRENDS
Protocols - the technical rules
governing data communication.
basic building blocks of Internet

Protocols that are associated with

the internet, known collectively as
TCP/ IP or Transmission Control
Protocol/ Internet Protocol.
 PROTOCOLS
Mail:

SMTP (Simplified Mail Transfer Protocol)

- used for sending e-mail between host
computers on internet.

POP ( Post Office Protocol)- connects users

to their mail servers.

Listserv Protocol- governs electric

mailing list (listservs) that “broadcast”
email to special-interest groups.
 PROTOCOLS
File Transfers:

FTP (File Transfer Protocol)- governs

how electronic documents and
computer programs are transmitted
across the internet.

http (hypertext transfer protocol)-

handles file transfers over the web.
 PROTOCOLS
Locators:
DNS (Domain Name Service)- translates
web adresses that people use, such as
http://www.msu.edu into adresses
that internet uses, such as 35.9.7.102.

Document Display:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)-
governs the display of Web pages on the

Host sends back HTTP response

Browser send HTTP request

 INTERNET TRENDS

IP Version 6
Launched in 2012.
It extends the length of internet
address so that more can be made.
It can issue addresses in all of the
world’s major languages or to give
smartphone, car, TV set, and
toaster their own IP address.
 INTERNET TRENDS

Cloud Computing
Huge hard drive is no longer needed
to run software programs.
Apple's icloud, Microsoft One Drive,
Dropbox and Google Drive.
 INTERNET TRENDS
Plug-ins
These are “helper programs” that
work with browser software to
perform a number of functions
including playing video, activating
animations, or displaying documents.
Some of the examples are the Flash
(Adobe), Windows Media Player,
Quicktime and Acrobat.
 INTERNET TRENDS
Scripts
A script is a piece of code that can
perform a specific function either
on a website, in an app or in a
computer program. Scripts can be
used, for example, to collect visitor
statistics and to add interactive
elements to a website.
 INTERNET TRENDS

Java scripts are written with a

subset of the Java computer
language. When you see a gray box
that says “application loading” that
means a Java program is
downloading to your computer.
 INTERNET TRENDS

New Markup Languages

XHTML (X for extensible) lets
programmers define their own tags.
Tags are the commands that tell your
browser how to display the document
XML is a meta language from which
specific tags for application can be
made.
 INTERNET TRENDS

For example are the NewsML-G2 and

the RSS ( Really Simple Syndication
XHTML is part of the development of
semantic web . This development is
designed to attach useful indexing
labels to the news.
 INTERNET TRENDS
HTML 5
Combines semantic web features with
multimedia players.
New version of HTML that plays
videos, video games, and music files
without having to download and
launch plug-ins, making media
consumption on the Web as convenient
as turning as stereo or a TV set.
 PrIVACY TRENDS
As social media platforms,
virtual assistants, and
engagement tracking tools
continue to collect and refine
our personal data, it’s only
reasonable that we as
consumers continue to
evaluate how we think about
data privacy.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
Tracking. Some other Web technologies
aren't so cool if you are concerned on
your privacy.

Cookies.

Cookies are small files left on visitors'

computers by websites to recognize
and greet them without requiring login.
However, they can also track and
collect information between sites
without the user's knowledge.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
Web bugs.
Web bugs are tiny (one
pixel) or invisible (e.g.,
matching the
background color of the
Web page) images
embedded in the HTML
code.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
Malicious code, invisible to
a user, placed on web
sites in such a way that it
allows third parties to
track use of web
servers and collect
information about the
user.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
These bugs can
follow your tracks
inside a website
and also track you
to other Web pages.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
Privacy is not guaranteed
even without cookies or Web
bugs, as the Internet
protocol uses your address
to route information, and the
fonts and version numbers
of plugins create electronic
"fingerprints" that uniquely
identify each user.
 PRIVACY TRENDS

SPYWARE: it is another
privacy threat
(sometimes called as
adware or malware).
 PRIVACY TRENDS

Spyware, downloaded
from internet
applications, monitors
browsing behavior and
may cause ads to
direct users to e-
commerce sites.
 PRIVACY TRENDS
It secretly sends information
about online activities and
poses a threat to online
safety due to security holes in
browser or operating system
software. It is crucial to
update software and accept
automatic notifications
promptly.
NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS

At only 56,000 bits per second,

the "high-speed" computer
modem of decades ago is an
obsolete slowpoke.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS

Video streaming is the most

demanding broadband application
that most Internet users crave and 3
million bits per second is generally
sufficient for the likes of Netflix and
Hulu. However, 25 million bits per
second is the new norm for
broadband service established by
the FCC.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
What is FCC?
FCC or the Federal
Communications Commission: is
an independent US government
agency regulating interstate
and international
communication by means of
radio, television, satellite and
cable.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
Most homes in the United States
get their broadband connections
from cable television companies.
Digital subscriber line (DSL)
connections have caught up to
cable modems in the race to wire
the country for broadband
connections capable of millions of
bits per second.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
DSL, a digital subscriber line, is a
family of technologies uses to
transmit digital data over
telephone lines. It was originally
called the digital subscriber loop.
In telecommunications marketing,
DSL is known for its most installed
technology, ADSL (asymmetric
digital subscriber line), for Internet
access.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
The Internet backbone is being
upgraded with fiber-optic cables
for broadband users, while
telephone companies provide fiber
connections. Google outdoors
cable and telephone companies
with 1 billion bit per second speeds,
while HughesNet and Exede
provide satellite web pages for
rural residents.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
The other network trend is
wireless. Third-generation (3G)
and fourth- generation (4G) cell
phones (see Chapter 11) make it
possible to check your e-mail and
surf Web pages with your phone
faster than current networks and
to run two-way video
conferences and watch high-
definition television on your cell
phone.
 NETWORK TECHNOLOGY TRENDS
Newer versions of Wi-Fi offer
faster speeds than cable modems,
allowing users to share wireless
connections on college campuses
and other locations. Universities
are participating in the Internet2
project, involving over 200
universities, to test the next
generation of Internet technology,
allowing for speeds of 100 billion
bits per second.

THE NET
 LARANA, INC.

The internet did not always live

up the promises of " Internet
evangelist” however, who
touted it as the cure for isolation,
poverty, ignorance, political,
opression, and boredom.
 The governments around the world
began to consider how to control an
international medium that evaded their
laws and challenged national media
systems, the beginnings of a
movement that now threatens the
existence of the internet 20 years
later.
Content restrictions became
an issue as the internet
collided with the cultures of
diverse nations.
 In United States, a portion of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996: the
communications Decency Act, was written
to ban "indecent" materials such as images
of naked female breasts from the internet.
That law was ruled to be unconstitutional,
but efforts continue to restrict sexually
explicit materials in the US.
 Enduring online horror, including child
molesters stalking children (cyberstalking),
teens harassing one another (cyberbullying),
online gamers destroying their families
(internet gaming addiction), and identity
thieves trolling for private information, began
to emerge. Parents came to regard the
internet, rather than television as the number
one media threat to children.

known as TimBL, is an English
computer scientist best known as the
inventor and the father of the World

basic protocol use by the internet.

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) -

Is used to format pages on the web.
France apparently has no problems
with breasts but tried to ban
material considered politically
obscene such as online sales of
souvenirs from Nazi Germany.
China bans online criticism of its
government and pro-Tibetan
websites by blocking dissident
web pages and monitoring public
internet cafes.
In the wake of 9/11 attacks, it
became evident that the
terrorists used the internet to
coordinate the plot, to raise
funds, and help recruit new
members to their cause.
 Intellectual property also became an
issue. The United States, with strict
copyright protections, were charmed to
find that other countries with more
lenient status became havens for file-
sharing services that supported
massive copyright piracy.
 Access to the internet, as well as its content,
also became an issue. Governments began
calling international oversight and an end to U.S
control. The ruling bodies of the internet, notably
the International Architecture Board and the
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), gradually
expanded to include international
representatives.
 ICANN ( Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers) - was
formed as a nonprofit private
corporation to oversee the
assignment of Internet addresses
(called domain names) and to develop
new one.
THE RISE
OF SOCIAL
MEDIA
2004- Facebook is
invented
GeoCities began hosting personal
web pages in the mid-1990s, many
of which resembled the social
network profiles of today, and
sixDegrees.com users could
create profiles and lists of friends.
The advent of blogging (1997) and wikipedia
(2001) were other milestones in the
evolution of social media.

Social Media - are media whose content is

created and distributed through social
interaction.

2001 - Wikipedia is founded

 Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr,
Wikipedia, and the rest follow the Web
2.0 model.

WEB 2.0 - are internet applications in

which users can provide content as well
as consume it.
 Facebook is fast becoming the new king of
the media by acting portal to news, and
entertainment as well as social interaction for
its users and becoming a major force in online
advertising, but Facebook is no longer the
sensation it once was among young adults
now that their parents, grandparents and
employers are looking in.
Everyme and Google+ and ephemeral
options like snapchat and vine that do
not leave permanent tracks, or at least
are not supposed to.

2006 - the first "tweet" is published.

 The impact of social media is boiling over into the real
world. Political movement across the globe use them to
organize protests against repressive governments.

Facebook and Twitter played the key roles in the

rebellions that swept through North Africa in 2011 and in
the occupy wall street movement in the United States.
Repressive governments fight; for example, the Egyptian
government effectively turned off the Internet in an
effort to suppress a democracy movement.
