Technology and Indigenous Peoples

I found a series of articles that reference how technologies are implicating Indigenous peoples lives.  This is good for me to know as I have not been attuned to technology, I realize that we are all impacted by rapid technological advances so I thought I would explore it some and share some tidbits. The PIDP 3240 Social Medial exercise helped me transform my thinking as I consider myself to be a deviant when it comes to social media especially Facebook and Twitter but I learned that technology is used in positive ways for language revitalization and empowerment for example.  Here are a few links outlining advances in technology:
