I agree, I have become less hesitant about the terms and service conditions and I agree to them without reading because I trust that they are safe.

Every time I sign up for a new app or go to a new web page on the internet, there is a terms of service portion that the users are meant to agree to, in order to continue. Personally, I never read them and after watching the youtube video, “Inside Edition,” I have realized that there are a lot of others who do not read them as well. I know that it is pretty dangerous not to read them because there could be underlying conditions that could lead to bigger problems in the corporation while using the app or the web service. I believe that the reason people do not read the terms and service agreements is because they trust that these popular apps and websites are safe to use, without reading the underlying fine print.

Many things were happening back to back and it was a bit hard for me to fully grasp. With that being said, I read it twice more to fully understand and digest the short story. From what I understood from this story is that technology is over powering humans. An example of this was when the dog died and the fire occurred, the house was almost like a smart house, it portrayed duties that a human would do and it could take care of itself. I really enjoyed the underlying meaning of this short story and how technology and machines were used throughout it.
