Civilization and technology

civilization and technology

One of the problems behind it is not a stranger anymore: pornography. Menkominfo apparently has not given satisfactory answers to questions that arise in microbloggingnya. There is a reason for the Blackberry has the ease and flexibility that is not controlled, and have their own line internet business scheme for its international connections. Therefore, the demand for RIM's worth posted.



Such cases, the authors warn about the various policies that do not touch the root of the problem. Ary Harsono, an observer of the communication mentioned this as the sole solution. As in philosophy, the fundamentals is the first matter that must be explained on the audience. It seems that then can be understood by the audience first. However, already swallowed the porridge, responsive unpleasant reactions emerged.



Responding to the issue, people would understand things more simple before referring to legislation. In every introductory discussion of communication technologies, the statement recalled Arnold Pacey. In his book, Technology: Practice and Culture, he explained that the technology made the development of human civilization. Therefore, Pacey put aspect of culture (cultural aspect) in a prime position to determine how the technology should be.



Cultural aspect includes goals, what is to be achieved from a technology development. Next is the values ​​and ethical codes, which is how technology evolves uphold the values ​​by taking into account the actual rules. As a society that has a height thinks anyway, he will realize the importance of technology and strive to create innovation (awareness and creativity) to improve the quality of life.



When understood in these terms, then it would not make public fuss about the things that makes the conversation out of context. Pornography is not the desire of civilized society technologies. Whatever the technology, then the offensive content of pornography is reasonable must be completed. Therefore, open minded, objective, is the attitude that you want to observe. So, this news was not to be misguided, and reach a quick solution. Could be, just two weeks alone pornography missing, and the issue of withdrawal of the Blackberry was not excessive as it is today.



Responding to this case, it can not be denied, both the Indonesian people and government has its drawbacks, especially regarding the policy fields of communications and information technology. August E Grant, the Umbrella Perspective mentioned that there are four factors that affect this policy. That is a factor enabling, limiting, Motivating, and inhibiting.



On the first factor (enabling), we do have a pretty good infrastructure in the IT field. Technology has a maximum capability, but not maximized. As a young young are allowed to hold a smartphone. However, he did not know much fabulosity of this gadget. Indeed, the harmful information which he knew, he could access a lot of things, and pornography is one of them. Not just the government, the public should be aware of this.



The second factor, there are limitations of the technology itself (limiting), in this case detecting pornographic content. In particular the government of Indonesia, the country needs to follow the example of other technological innovations to this moral issue, not just writing policies without adequate technical.



Next, is the Motivating factors, namely the urge within man himself. Id, which needs to be lust, even indefinitely, always look for loopholes in order to pornography accessed anywhere, anytime. Thus, the implementation of the law was sometimes challenged, ignored by groups who are considered interested parties.



Lastly, is the inhibiting factor, namely his own human limitations. The problem of pornography is not easy. Simple, yet complicated because of heterogeneity. In this discussion, the government that needs to be highlighted. Conscious society has its limitations, therefore they entrust the people who have excess to manage this country. Factor this limitation should be reduced, because we believe humans can reach a maximum of thought, especially moral issues, problems of civilization.



Awareness of the nation that has civilization, reflected by the technology that was created. According to Arnold Pacey. We are determined not by technology. If it is determined by technology, where human civilization? If there are technologies that contain pornographic content, then is not a natural thing as a society we reject or business owners who have the moral elevation and the rules of thinking?



In closing, then we need to understand again, that not only the Blackberry (for now) but all the technology that contains the contents of which override the values ​​espoused, it's time to be eradicated. Ranging from conventional to digital. Porn site until the yellow newspaper. Furthermore, the government should be able to communicate clearly, mentioning the most fundamental reason that can be understood society. Finally, the community would be more clear and open in responding to the issue.
