Den ökade tillgången till datorer samt den ökade enkelheten att använda datorer och internet har ökat mängden personer över 65 år som använder sociala nätverk. Tidigare forskning visar bland annat att personer över 65 känner sig i större utsträckning mer ensamma och isolerade. Annan tidigare forskning menar att internetanvändarna som är över 55 år ökar avsevärt och att detta beror på den ökade tillgängligheten samt kunskaperna rörande datorer och internet. I studien genomfördes 15 kvalitativa intervjuer, med respondenter som rekryterades genom en kombination av ett kriteriebaserat urval samt snöbollsurval. Resultatet visade att Facebook bland annat har bidragit till ett ökat kontaktnät samt ett förbättrat informationsflöde när det gäller familj och vänner.

Bakgrunden till denna studie var en vilja att lyfta fram sexarbetande kvinnors sätt att definiera sig själva; en ambition som bottnar i ett konstaterande av att den aktuella gruppen är vida omtalad, men till stor del saknar en offentlig röst. Undersökningen består av en diskursanalys av sexarbetande kvinnors representationer på internet lokaliserade huvudsakligen i blogginlägg. Texterna har studerats som ett forum för motmakt, där kvinnorna har möjlighet att bestrida negativa attityder och föreställningar om kvinnor som arbetar med sex, vilket i rapporten illustreras som narrativt motstånd. Utifrån frågeställningen hur sexarbetande kvinnor konstruerar sin identitet på internet har tre framträdande tolkningsrepertoarer identifierats: Sexbranschen som tjänstesektor, Sexualdriftens karaktär och Den fria människan ? samt tre övergripande subjektspositioner: Den aktivt deltagande samhällsmedlemmen, Sexperten, och Offret.

Firewalls protect network traffic and decide witch traffic to send further and witch traffic will be blocked. All this depends on the rules in the firewall. The firewall is installed between the internal network and the Internet. It is difficult to find a firewall that can protect us against different threats. Firewalls have both advantages and disadvantages and all this make them vulnerable.

Uppsatsen analyserar hur återförsäljning på Internet hanteras under EU-rättens konkurrensregler för vertikala avtal bl.a. i ljuset av EU-domstolens avgörande i Mål C-439/09 Pierre Fabre. Med EU-rättens konkurrensregler för vertikala avtal åsyftas artikel 101 Fördraget om Europeiska Unionens Funktionssätt, Kommissionens förordning (EU) nr 330/2010 av den 20 april 2010 om tillämpningen av artikel 101.3 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt på grupper av vertikala avtal och samordnade förfaranden och Kommissionens Riktlinjer om Vertikala Begränsningar (2010/C 130/01). Fokus ligger på att utreda om den balans som reglerna speglar mellan olika intressen är välavvägd och hur reglerna bemöter de utmaningar som Internetförsäljning medför..
