In the first reading the author establishes all the shapes and sizes that disinformation, misinformation, and malinformation come in the author first begins by talking about satire and parodies and how they are a perfect way to mislead the public with the "it's not meant to be serious" line, false communication or clickbait which leads people to believe something is more than what it actually is, misleading information and its many complications because it isn't just true or false and often times people have been able to warp what they say for AI systems to not flag the misinformation that is being pushed, false context which is people making something seem completely different than what it actually is, imposter context the use of another person or organizations name, logo ect to mislead them, manipulated content, and fabricated content. I never realized how many different ways people can dissuade others through the media and how beneficial it is to know how to check your sources when you are browsing online. In filter bubbles, Pariser talks mainly about how our media shapes itself to filter what they think we want to see as described "a unique universe of information for each of us … which fundamentally alters the way we encounter ideas and information." Pariser described it as a "one way mirror" of what you want to see. In the last reading Danah Boyd talks about media literacy and uses a conversation she had with a young highschool teen girl about sex education and the many incorrect things that the girl seemed to believe that was true, which to Boyd was baffling and she isn't the only young teen that is like this so she begins to express the importance of media literacy education. Boyd explains that we as a society have established an understanding that news outlets like The New York Times, Scientific journal publications, and professionals with high degress are highly credible. The young people of our world will make up the next leaders and what they learn is vital and as Boyd said if you combine that with distrust in the media it can become a problem.
So me creating my own rule for my email is a way of me filtering what I do and don't want to see and it will also make it easier for me to organize and manage everything I receive. It can also help with halting misinformation, and or disinformation because the email that I filtered to see is highly credible and trustworthy. Learning the different ways you can alter web searches and filter your emails is something everyone should know, so that information being received is trusted, the idea Boyd was pushing with media literacy.
