Journal Entry #4 (Netiquette)

Something I found most surprising when it comes to issues around netiquette would be how you can be so rude without even realizing half the time. No I don't think that most Internet users read or concern themselves with the terms of service/use agreements when joining a site or online service because they want to just hurry up and get on the site or its way too much to read. They should go over the terms of agreement because a lot of things they are agreeing to can affect them in the near future. Considering the different issues this unit looked at about behaving appropriately online, on a scale of 1-10 I would rate my own online behaviour as an 8 because I am not perfect online because I don't read the terms of agreement but I'm never bad or rude online. One thing I can take away from this unit and put in practice to improve my online behaviour would be learn how to take the time to read through the terms of service agreement because I never do and my luck something will happen in the future because I did not read them. I think the biggest issue when it comes to netiquette would be like I said reading the terms.
