How do these issues affect you?

As I was watching the first video the idea of Electronic Tattoos came to life. Greeks were the beginning of this idea since they discussed the idea of immortality which then resulted in the connection to Big Data, and tattoos. Tattoos share a lot of meaning like Beauty, Intriguing, Allegiance, and Mistakes. They tell a lot of stories. These can connect to electronic tattoos since what we post will be on the internet and social media for immortality or forever. This idea affected me by the thought of being careful in what you post. Think before you take action, look over the post, do not post something that you will regret.
