Ethics assignment 3

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)/ HIPAA is healthcare law and rights created to provide privacy and protection under the care of a medical facility, MD personal, health insurance, and medical documents geared towards anything to do with patients’ rights

The pharmaceutical industry has moved very far from its original high purpose of discovering and producing useful new drugs. This industry uses its wealth and power to co-opt every institution that might stand in its way, including the US Congress, the FDA, academic medical centers, and the medical profession itself. We as US citizens are subjected to a barricade of advertising provided by the pharmaceutical industry to featuring beautiful people enjoying themselves in the great outdoors, extracurricular activity, or any great period in life where can be enjoying life. This country was built on a free enterprise system which is a good place to be with the beneficiaries this nation offers those who are optimistic. The cost of prescription are high with the prices rising daily and it’s to the point you have to have a coverage plan in order to help with the cost of these drugs. Around $200 billion a year is spent on prescription drugs which has increased by people are taking a lot more drugs than they used to; the spending reflects expensive new ones instead of older and cheaper ones. How does this topic reflect everyone who takes a breath of air in America? About 70% of the adult population takes at least one pharmaceutical drug and I’m sure the minor uncensored percentage is not too far behind. What is acceptable is that no matter how much we debate on these high price drugs we count on them to help with the longevity of the life cycle.
How does HIPPAA clarify pharmaceutical company’s price gauging? because they have an estimate on how many sick Americans are in need of specific medications which allows them control over how to dispense the medication. Which then provides healthcare coverage to monitor what drugs are dispensed to its consumer whether a trademark or generic form and with the notion health insurance can also control if the treatment is necessary for their consumer identified by medical staff on their payroll. We now live in a nation to where everyone has healthcare and even that has its pros and cons. I agree that everyone should have promising access to healthcare but then at what cost and to who, the consumer, government or tax payer. Since the regulations for prescription medication and healthcare are so discombobulated its feels good just to know that you are able to schedule a healthcare appointment and be given the necessity of drugs that your are entitled to as a patient.

2nd Ethical Hacking assignment (Revised part 1#)

"
Around the late 2006 to early 2007 era a familiar online name anonymous took actions toward a man named Hal (Harold) Turner for his recognition of being a neo-Nazi. He hosted his own podcast show live on the web. He is a white supremacist true believer who has used internet and radio broadcasts to announce his hatred towards nonwhite ethic groups. A large number of individuals decided that retaliation was necessary towards the well know Neo-Nazi. "  

The issue was that Hal Turner a white supremacist’s claim to fame was for allegedly broadcasting the murder of three federal appellate judges' after they affirmed on June 2nd a lower court decision to dismiss challenges to Chicago's ban on handguns. He also allegedly posted the work addresses of the judges as well as their photos with a note that home addresses would follow and map of Chicago's federal courthouse highlighting its "anti-truck-bomb" pylons. These cry out lead to a the murder of federal district judge Joan Lefkow found husband and mother shot dead in the basement of her home.  Hal Turner used the brand of hate towards immigrants, Jews, gays, congressmen, the President, and pretty much everyone else who does not fit his narrow definition of "human." Anonymous turned the tables on Turner when he published some minors who prank called his radio show and that was his way he bullied or intimidated those who crossed his path. They basically made it difficult for him to keep the lights on for his podcast and tipped of officials that he was wrapped up in being an FBI informant. I believe the notion behind this internet entity is proving through grey hacking that problems and solution can bring forth a subconscious of events stored a server. Mainly any software developer can be a hacker in some way or another. Programming involves outside the box thinking and using creativity to crack a particular problem past the realm of established and proven results.  I believe through grey hat revolution there will be more for those to help the cause for the battle of illegal things to achieve effects that are ethically or morally right.
