The Internet is a network of thousands of computers and devices around the world connected by copper wires, fibre optics, wireless connections and other methods.

Sometime soon, we will be using the Internet of Things, which will enable us to interact with everyday objects connected to the Internet. This development will interconnect people and objects and reduce or eliminate barriers of time and distance. Many more things than people will be connected to the Internet: the Internet revolution and its continuous development will radically change the way we understand the world.

1. How does the Internet work?

The advent of the Internet can be seen as the beginning of one of the most important developments of the twentieth century. It emerged between 1965 and 1969 as part of the ARPA project of the United States Department of Defense. Since then, it has developed continuously into an essential service that we can access from anywhere using our mobile phones, tablets and personal computers.

The Internet of Things is a revolutionary concept that describes the connection of everyday objects to the Internet so that we can interact with them.

Internet basics

To understand how the Internet works, we need to be familiar with some basic concepts:We can access information on the Internet with the help of two basic elements: the browser and the search engine.

A browser is a programme that displays the content of web pages.

For example: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.

5-Think before you publish photos or videos of yourself; if you decide to do it, only publish things that will not damage your current or future image and publish them in places with restricted access and with the permission of your parents. Remember not to post pictures of anybody without their consent. Be respectful to others.

6-Keep up to date with technology and limit how long you spend on the Internet.

7-Make sure that you are of the minimum age required to enter a site. You will find this age in the terms of use of the site. You must read these terms before clicking on “I agree. If you do not read them, you may be allowing the site owners to use your data, pictures, etc.

8-Inform yourself about sites. On some sites you cannot “unsubscribe so we must be careful about what we post on them; we can sometimes give away our data forever.

In short: use common sense and do not do things on a computer that you would not do in everyday life.

Rodrigo Baeza Practical 1. Your digital footprint You can do Practical 1 by following the book or by listening to the instructions.Everything you do on the Internet leaves a trace, a digital footprint that talks about you. This information is your digital identity and it is your duty to take care of it. You are protected by the law in this.Exercise 1. Find out your Internet IPAs we have seen, every time we connect to the Internet we are identified by a unique address assigned to our computer, called an IP address. We will now see how easy it is to find out our assigned IP.Open your browser and go to www.google.es. Type “Find out my public IP in the search box.Click on any link, look up the IP address you are browsing with and write it down (it will look like the one in Figure 1).Repeat the operation by clicking on another link and check that it detects the same IP.

2. Personal safety and machine security

The Internet is a form of communication with many advantages but it also has its risks: it is a world of information that we have to deal with safely. A computer is not a harmless tool.

We can classify the risks of the Internet as:

Threats to the machine, i.e. our computer.
Threats to individuals, the most important type of risk. Damage to machines is only material damage but when people are hurt, it stays with them and affects other aspects of their lives.

Besides the software that we can use, our best protection is ourselves and the adults we trust: parents, teachers and experts. As we saw above, our attitude is the best protection. We must be digitally responsible.

When we use Internet tools, we need to keep in mind our own safety and respect for others.
The law is here to protect us. Examples include:

The Civil Protection of Honour Act
The Data Protection Act

Our computer communicates with other computers following a common set of rules called a protocol.The packets of information follow the TCP/IP protocol (transfer control protocol/Internet protocol).Servers use the HTTP protocol (hypertext transfer protocol) to send and receive documents over the Internet.

| The DNS server sends the request to the server that hosts the web page we want to visit. The server sends us the information packets that make up the web page, which travel over the network along the quickest path that they can find.

Finally, the packets reach our computer and are reassembled. The page is then displayed in our browser.

Solutions:

Antivirus. An antivirus is a program that can project our computer from attacks by viruses and Trojans if it is kept up to date. Antivirus software searches for fragments of characters that are characteristic of viruses and compares them to its databases

Firewall. A defence system that controls and filters te incoming and outgoing traffic of a network through our computer ports. It displays alerts to ask for confirmation for an program that uses the internet conection.

White Hacking. Activity carried out by people who help individuals and buisnesses to discover how secure their systems are against malicious hackers.

Cryptography. The encryption of informaton to protect files, communication and passwords

Passwords. These can enhance the security of a file, folder or computer on a local network or the internet. The security lever of our computer user will be different to the security level of a Wi-Fi router, for example.

HOW THE INTERNET WORKS
1. Users can connect to the Internet if they have a contract with an Internet service provider (ISP) and pay a set fee. When we switch on a computer and connect to the Internet, our ISP (for example, Movistar, Jazztel, Ono, etc.) assigns an address to our computer, called an IP address. Every computer is assigned a unique address on the Internet.

2. A router is a device that lets us connect to the Internet. Once connected, we open our browser and type the address of a page in it (URL). At this point, information starts to travel in the form of packets. The information sent out is the request or address of the web page that we want to visit and the information that is sent back is the content of the web page.

3. The next step in the information's journey are the DNS. It would be very difficult to remember the IP address of every website that we could connect with. DNS servers simplify this task for us. DNS stands for domain name system and these servers assign a name to each IP address in the same way that a telephone directory assigns names to telephone numbers so that we do not have to remember them all.

For example, if we type the IP 64.233.189.104 in our browser, we are connected to the Google home page, which is the same as typing in "https://www.google.es".

Each web page is also assigned an IP. This way, we can identify the origin and destination of the flow of information.

. Here are some simple guidelines to help you publish information safely.

Talk to your parents about your Internet browsing; they can always help if you are unsure about anything. If you receive something unusual or unpleasant, talk to an adult about it or report it.

On the Internet, do not ask for or give out data such as addresses, passwords, telephone numbers, the place where you study, places where you normally hang out or any other information that could identify you. Use aliases and nicknames that do not contain your date of birth or information about you.

Do not talk to strangers. People are not always what they say they are. Be wary of anybody who wants to know a lot of information about you. Remember that there are safer ways to make new friends.

Turn your webcam to a dead angle or put a sticker over it when you are not using it so that it cannot record images. Webcams can be operated remotely by malicious software. The police have been warning us for years that the images we think come from the webcam of another person are often actually images that they have faked.

Practical 2. Find the information: successes and failures

We are going to play a game where we search for information to find out how difficult it is to obtain the correct answer to specific questions about the Internet and to demonstrate our research skills.

Rules of the game

Read each question in order, search the Internet for the information to answer it and then type your answer in a word processor file with the name Unit02_P2_namesurname.
Each answer leads to the next question.
You must answer every question.
For every correct answer, you win a point. For every question you get wrong, you lose a point.
You can use any browser and search engine.
Look for reliable sources of information.

Let's begin:

The image in Figure 4 shows a concept related to the Internet. What is this concept? It starts with the letter D. We will call it WORD 1 in the next question.
What does the WORD 1 jp mean, represented by the top cube in Figure 4? We will call it WORD 2.
The last letter of WORD 2 is the first letter of WORD 3, the surname of a person connected to a very important and destructive invention. What surname is WORD 3?
WORD 3 amassed a great fortune from his inventions and left it to create prizes called after him. Which Spanish writer was awarded this prize in 1989? We will call this WORD 4 (even though it is three words: two names and surname).
Put the last word of WORD 4 in the masculine form and you will have an invention. In what year was it invented? The year is WORD 5 and the last one of the game.

All the answers are hidden in this QR code. Ask your teacher for permission to scan the code using a QR code reader (mobile app) to see the answers.

Count up your points and see who won.

ChallengesChallenge 1. Can you carry on the game by thinking up three more questions? Save your questions in a text document called Unit02_P2_namesurname_challenge1 and pass it on to a classmate to answer them.

n point 4 of the Privacy & Terms section, WhatsApp explains which users can see your status in the application and which users you can hide this from. Complete the important permissions cell with this information.

Exercise 3. Snapchat

Go to https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapchat and read about how Snapchat works. Copy the services of the application and complete the relevant cell in your table.
Now go to the Snapchat page (www.snapchat.com) and select Terms of Service in the LEGAL Section. The minimum age for using the application is indicated in Point 1. Copy and paste this data in the relevant cell of your table.
In point 2 of the same section, Your Content, read the permissions that you grant to Snapchat on any of the content that you exchange with this application. Try to understand what each permission involves. Complete the important permissions cell with this information.
Go to the Privacy Policy section and read the Information We Get Automatically When You Use Our Services section. Select five items of your data that are collected by the application and insert them in the relevant cell of your information table.
