Summary | Intellectual property is difficult to defend on the internet. Memes go viral and the origin is hard to track down. Recently even Hollywood snagged an idea off of social media where users began developing an idea for a movie based on a picture of Rihanna and Lupita Nyong'o. Social media users try to be creative and share their ideas on these platforms because it is addicting if other users respond positively.

Summary | A mother who homeschools their children lets them play video games for up to seven hours a day. Experts criticize this because excessive video gaming reduces the development of empathy and other important psychological and cognitive developments. They are clearly not receiving nearly as much educaton as children in the public school system. All this is however legal as homeschooled children do not need to follow the curriculum or sit standardized exams.
