Added some bold.

Article Evaluation:

Content:

- Everything was on topic, but it did seem it was lacking

- Make it sound more simplistic, lack of clarity shown

- very poor editing

- lack of structure and information

- links work

- bias noted, strong claims not backed with evidence

- it was marked as 'vandalism' and many people talk about the article and how to improve it

Rephrased a sentence on Make me a sandwich.

Our Team's top 5 options:


 * 1) Digital Divide & the Middle East: We would like to talk about how their religious government structure impacts their idea of the internet and how it's distributed. Digital divide by country (we don't know what country yet)
 * 2) Information Privacy and Advertising in the United States; What we can plan on talking about is how much advertisements should display and how the fine text plays an impact.  Legal advertising in the United States
 * 3) Digital Surveillance & Middle East: How much does the government watch what people say and how it impacts society. Censorship in the Middle East
 * 4) Information Literacy & The Spread of Lies:  The connection between lack of information literacy, information overload, and the lack of education to inform people what to believe/trust and whatnot on the internet. Information literacy
 * 5) Social Networking & The Spread of advertisements: How social networking gave new access to people in different ages being sucked into buying products.  Adolescents and food marketing
