One famous case on music:
Johnny Cash vs Gordon Jenkins. The song that was being questioned was "Second Dream:The Conductor." When they were compared with each other, they were alike. Johnny Cash's song seemed more experienced, but most of the lyrics were similar to the other one with a few words changed.

Identity Theft.
o What mistakes did this woman make to have her identity stolen?
She gave out her information that should only be kept to herself. She only used her debit card, which is less secure than a credit card.
o Why do you feel ID Theft is such a common problem these days?
Everyone is hard up for money, and other things. They think that the person they're stealing their identity from, doesn't deserve what they have, so they take it.
o What type of documents or personal belongings would someone have to obtain to steal a person’s identity?
Debit card, credit card, SSN.
o What are some ideas that you would suggest to someone to protect their identity from being stolen.
Keep all their information to themselves. Don't give anyone your SSN or your pin number for anything, they might not be who you think they are.
o Who do you think is to blame, the person stealing the identity, or the person who is not protecting themselves from identity theft?
The person stealing the identity because it's not right. Just because the person wasn't cautious about the information they were giving out, it doesn't give the person who's stealing the identity, the right to do so.

Website application software will probably be available later in the year. This has great potiental, because you'll be able to download things faster, and be able to have your webpages load more quickly. It'll be very convienent & a lot faster than your mobile internet. I will probably be using this new technology item when it comes out.
