Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Blow to Bits
Reflection
Chapter three talks about the information of how fast bits can be transferred. It also talks about the many dangers of email transfers and the safety while using a computer. What I had found interesting about the chapter was that the fastest thing in the universe is the speed of light , traveling at the speed of 186,000 miles per second. What is even more interesting is that an email can also travel that fast, pretty fast in my opinion. So many people send emails all day every day, students to teachers, bosses to employees with classified information etc. They would think that no one would ever read that unless it is the receiver on the other end of that email. However, according to the chapter, the emails aren't as private as it seems or as we think. In fact, hackers and even the government have access to that information.
