This week's assignments were pretty heavy, but I was able to get more experience with another type of coding and the history of how websites started. I found the CODIS case assignment to be very interesting, since I was able to take a deeper look on how police and investigators explore DNA testing to find suspects. Also, I learned how the FBI deals with DNA data that is not from the actual person who committed the crime. The other assignment that was a huge eye-opener for me was looking into how the Pandora app collects data from its users. It was interesting to see what algorithm the platform gave me based on my likes and dislikes. I also learned how important it is to read the terms and conditions when it comes to privacy as I might be allowing applications and websites to use more of my personal data and information than I thought.Â
