10. Solution Model 1: Poster Responsbility Poster is responsible for what they contribute via mobile devices Consider before posting: o consent of parties involved o age of parties, minors o nature of content o legality of actions recorded o possibility to go viral *Recording an incident can have positive uses such as logging criminal evidence, but should'nt be put online

11. Solution Model 2: Host Liability It is the responsibility of the host to monitor content. -Expend more resources to implement identity concealing technologies such as: -Voice masking -Face / body blurring -Critical information about the original poster and origin of content should be a requirement Kinect Example: http://www.g4tv.com/videos/49814/adult- star-kirsten-price-tests-kinects-nude-filter/http://www.g4tv.com/videos/49814/adult- star-kirsten-price-tests-kinects-nude-filter/ Voice Masking: http://www.screamingbee.com/http://www.screamingbee.com/

12. Solution Model 3: Personal Responsibility You are responsible for controlling content about you Impossible for content provider to regulate everything Too difficult to track the source once a video has spread Can't rely on other people to make good decisions Only option is to prevent videos to be taken of you o Must be:  Paranoid  Quick to respond  Ready to sue Some might argue this is how it already works because no one cares about what they post.

13. Selected Solution Solution 1 o Generally is our current system o Other options generally unfeasible:  volume of material unmanageable for hosts  technology incompetent people are vulnerable  searches for self can be difficult without proper meta tagging (Ex:"Guy gets owned" vs "John Smith of 123 Street, Indiana, PA 15701 get owned") o This model of use is a social issue  problems are result of people so a cultural change about posting will be required for a better implementation
