I want to focus on the use of photography and the laws to use cameras for war. Also, I'm interested in how nations used photography and cameras as a weapon. There is a law that we documenting you can not crop, modify or enhance the photo in any way because this act is a modification to what is happening. The idea for police officers to start wearing body cameras. Some people and police officers were against the idea; it shows there is no trust in our authority. When there is no trust in the protection that people need to be safe. There are 3 different ways A camera can be used as; Protection, regulation, and as a weapon.

We see security cameras all the time, Do you know that some of the cameras on the street, in buildings and Nations around the world, use these cameras in a way to protect themselves for example in Russia there is a law where because of the massive size of 6.602 million mi²  and the relaxed country made it hard for enforcing road safety and laws. There's a population of people that try to fake getting hit by cars to risk their lives to get money from the insurance;  the protection from fraud.

In China under the rule of Xi Jinping Has created a new market for security cameras and putting them on the street. The increased amount of the vastly stretched cameras around the nation; lower prices have made it more accessible for stores and residents to use for their own use as protection. The police watch footage from the 4,300 cameras around the nation. This line of work employs more than 3,000 employees in Ecuador, started in early 2011 the idea to bring Chinese footage across the Atlantic to Ecuador where the police “Manually” overwatch the Chinese population.  With great power comes great responsibility, there are some nations that do abuse this as certain censorship called “public opinion guidance” with the misuse of Chinese made a controversial system that started to profile Muslim individuals, the program detected the detected these minorities using facial recognition this isn't the ones in your iphone jib jabs.

What to take away from this small dive into the use of cameras. Theres is also the other uses the cameras in so many more ways that I cant even write because of the word count but  in short there is a good a way and a bad or every way. You might find it creepy or strange. In Chinas case there is a definite sense of invasion of privacy.

The were many movies out that I wanted to see, but they were all rated R and being me, a mere sixteen year old I could only fantasize. I looked around on all the movie theater websites like the RAVE, the AMC and of course google itself for a movie that wasn't rated R. Then I found it; Happy Death Day. I was a bit hesitant because I really enjoy a good scare when I go to a horror movie, and the best scares  were the movies rated R, so I assumed that the scare was not going to be as well done compared to the movie Saw (2004).

On October 19th I asked around snapchat if any of my friends wanted to see a movie. I asked them, “Hey do you wanna go out and see Happy Death Day the movie with me?” I wanted to see it really badly because all of the other horror movies that I wanted to see were all R rated.  I was only 16 at the time so I would had needed an adult I didn't want to sit down with one of my parents through a horror movie that they would hate it. It might've been awkward. I asked the new girl in our grade, Maddy I added her on Snapchat when we first meton the first day of Sophomore year. My friend lou introduced us in the cafe of the school

“Hey this is Maddy” she said

“Are you two sisters or something?” I asked

“No!” they both said

I asked her if she wanted to go and she said “Yeah sure I’ll go”. Around 9:00 pm we go to go the Rave at 40th and Walnut. We got there and it was actually my first time in a movie theater at night with no adults. The theater had as usual, there's the classic 90s carpeting pattern, the red background and the little black triangles and yellow squiggly lines that looked like mustard on the floor.

The Movie was about a girl in college that had one day of her life repeat over and over.

At first she is confused about this strange phenomenon. She wakes up everyday in another bed after a late night of partying, a friend of the strangers and says something disrespectful about her being there. It is her birthday she walk outside and notices little different thing like a group of people having a picnic then the sprinkler turns on and they get all wet, the next thing she notices is a guy that passes out from some kind of frat hazing this happens many times. She gets used to these recurrences and she does something each time this happens. Ten thing start to get weird  a masked killer suddenly takes her life in a brutal attack again she wakes up without a scratch. She uses this phenomenon to get who the masked killer is.

The movie was fine but I don't recommend it, I was very confused but I still figured out who the murder was  half way through the movie and that was fun. I didn’t enjoy the scares since it was a PG13 movie.

Then her parents came to pick her up and I was picked up too. Later that night I asked her out and she said yes and now were together. if this is you can, you can get to know things about new people that you meet and create new friendships and and relationships with a simple text.
