An example of this within the last 5 years would have to be the George Floyd tragedy. Instead of this story coming from the news directly showing police brutality, it had originally come from a video footage taken from a bystander who recorded the full event.

"fake news" is often caused from bias perspectives of the matter often times caused from political and government issues. Citizen Journalism relates to this as it can show new perspectives and understanding of a situation that may not be shown in the media.

An example is during the Khabib vs Connor fight a fight had broken out after the fight where one of the fighters had jumped over the fence to fight one of the coaches from the other team. This video is an example of Citizen Journalism as it shows a unique view.

The video shows friendly harmless competitive yelling between the dodger fan and the Brewers fan as the Brewers had just scored a point. However when the Dodgers score a point the Dodgers fan yells in excitement. Thats when the woman starts taking things too seriously.

QUESTION 2:

A Brewers Fan was swearing at a Dodgers Fan. Not only was she swearing at a family friendly baseball game but she was being very racial. The brewers fan had said "Call ICE" to a Dodgers Fan who was reported to be Latino.

IShowSpeeds democratization is still expanding and growing even after the Ronaldo Collab. Including doing collabs with Mr.Beast, KSI, Kai Cenat, and even collaborated with the gaming platform, Fortnite. This all started from a young kid making Youtube gaming videos in his bedroom.

Not only had IShowSpeed become a great known fan of Ronaldo but he was specifically called out to him and was able to have a one on one photo. Fans, both Ronaldo and IShowSpeed, had lost their minds when this photo came out. Making the internet go bananas.

IShowSpeed started gaining fame using the famous platforms of Youtube and Twitch. He would showcase himself raging and barking while playing all kinds of video games. Other creators would then take clips from these streams and post it as shorts or reels all sorts of social media.

Question 1: (Page 1 of 6)

My example of someone who had become extremely famous within the last 5 years would be famous Youtuber, Darren, also known as "IShowSpeed". IShowSpeed is an excellent example of someone who used democratization of the web to become famous.

In conclusion, fake identity is the main role in catfishing. Identifying yourself with fake remarks to draw in prospects of interests. This can be anything from take information on your resume to telling someone of sexual interest you are 6 ft 5".

Going more in depth of what this question is really asking. After reading the CyberInfo Blog its safe to conclude catfishing is creating a fake identity for yourself. Not only do people use this tactic for sexual relations but also for fraud and scams.

Firstly, lets completely define what "catfishing" really is? According to Proofpoint catfishing is a method of romance fraud. It's impersonating someone on dating cites or social media to draw in prospects!

Thus, I believe the phrase "on the internet no one knows you are a dog" directly implies creating an entire identity for yourself online separate from IRL identity. Online you can show a completely different side of you and no one would know your "true" IRL self.

Another Article from Distilled goes in depth of how the phrase "On the internet no one knows you are a dog" helps us identify online identity. On the internet you can make it so you have a cloak of invisibility. Posting whatever you choose about yourself you are able to re-identify yourself.

According to Smithsonian magazine the phrase was first introduced in 1933 in a cartoon about two dogs sitting at the computer. Though back then the phrase did not have much meaning it heavily foreshadowed how social media would change the social world for humans forever.
