Satire Video Reflection.

One of my favorite satire videos was the parody of the new iPhone that is about 2 feet long. This video was very successful in depicting the average American's dependence on technology. In the video it shows how the average person can be so indulged in the newest technology even if it isn't productive or usable. This video used wit and sarcasm to expose the average persons needless dependence on technology.
The other video that I thought was a good example of satire was the Facebook parody video. In the video a Facebook CIA project was portrayed, where the CIA was tapping into the American peoples Facebook postings to solve terrorist threats and monitor the activities of everyday people. In this video American people were the main target. The video used wit to expose the fact that people publish pretty much everything on the Internet and that anyone can access that information. It showed that people really don't monitor what they are posting on the Internet, they are not aware of their safety on the Internet.
