Why have advertising networks become controversial? What, if anything, can be done to overcome any resistance to this technique?

-Advertising networks have become controversial because their ability to track individual consumers across the internet is alarming to privacy advocates. Legislation or regulation that would curtail the use of web beacons and other tracking devices without consumer notification could help to overcome resistance to this technique. -Giving consumers the option to opt-in or opt-out and making web beacons visible as an icon on the screen could ease consumers' concerns. Finally privacy advocates believe that if a user clicks icon, a disclosure statement should indicate any or all of the following: what data is being collected, how the data will be used, what other companies will receive the data, what other data it will be combined with, and if a cookie is associated with the web beacon. Consumers should be able to opt-out of any data collection done by the web beacon and it should never be used to collect sensitive data such as medical, financial, job-related, or sexual matters

There are four methods that online advertisers use to behaviorally target ads:

-Search engine queries -The collection of data on individual browsing history online (monitoring the clickstream) -The collection of data from social network sites -And increasingly, the integration of this online data with offline data like income, education, address, purchase patterns, credit records, driving records, and hundreds of other personal descriptors tied to specific, identifiable persons

Would you say that the internet fosters or impedes social activity? explain your position.

-The internet both fosters and impedes social activity -It fosters it because email, instant messaging, and social networks help people to easily stay in touch with friends and relatives.

Explain how versioning works. How is this different from dynamic pricing?

-Versioning works by having a set of slightly different products that can be sold successfully to different market segments. Low price or free versions can be less convenient, less comprehensive, slower, less powerful, and offer less support than higher priced models. Versioning differs from dynamic pricing because each version is sold at a fixed, predetermined price, and there are slight differences and functionality between versions -In dynamic pricing, auctions can be used to establish an instant market price based upon the price the market will bear. Yield management systems can be used to set prices for different markets and appeal to different segments in order to sell excess capacity. Auctions work for pricing unusual as well as commonplace goods: the differing price an article will bring in the marketplace is not based upon the version of the good or service, but rather upon the market dynamics at that particular moment in time. Yield management systems are generally profitable for perishable goods or where there are seasonal variations in demand or rapidly changing market conditions. Again, the product itself is no more or less functional than it's higher or lower yielding counterparts despite the varying prices preset by managers.
