New Police Radars Can 'see' Inside Homes:
I read the article titled New Police Radars Can 'See' Inside Homes.  In this article it talked about a new radar that police forces have that allow them to 'see' inside homes, with a range of up to 50 feet. The radar can not produce pictures, but it can produce audio which helps police to determine the situation within the house. Police use this as evidence, when in need to search someones house as a way to avoid having to get a search warrant. People believe that the radar goes against the fourth amendment which is our right to privacy, people do not like that the radar can hear everything in their house, and that police can use it without you knowing. The problem today with this is that technology is ever changing, and that people are acting oblivious to the way in which the technology is being used. The problem that comes along with the radar is that it is not a shock that the police have this, but it is how they are going to use the radar that is the problem.

Wireds Top Pick from CES 2015

The article that I read was titled Wireds Top Pick from CES 2015. This article was about the new pieces of technology that companies have designed in order to eventually be sold in stores. The new technology that caught my attention was the Netatmo, this piece of technology is a home surveillance system that sends alerts to your smartphone to inform you when someone is entering your house. I think this is very interesting considering that the person can reach alerts from this on their smart phone, while seeing a livestream of your house with just a click from your smart phone.
