In this day and age there are
several different types of liabilities that plague companies like the one I am
planning to create. Not only will
SpeakLifeTV be a web based “television” channel but we will also offer products
for sale in our online store, daily giveaways and uncensored faith based,
family friendly, programming. Being able
to offer all of these types of services will be a great benefit to SpeakLifeTV
but they will not be without their challenges and obstacles. The most important challenge that is of
widespread concern is the new increased risk of data breaching,
More
and more, during the past few years, companies of every size on the spectrum
have had data breaches. Cyber hackers
have done a number on companies such as Target, Home Depot and Staples making
shoppers leery about using their credit and debit cards. To combat this type of apprehension we will
have secure purchasing that requires the customer to enter a CAPTCHA code
before they are able to their purchase.
SpeakLifeTV will also not have the site store available on our mobile
app to prevent accidental purchases.
There
are also two other areas of concern that faces SpeakLifeTV is our intention to
host daily giveaways. There are three
types of giveaways, sweepstakes, contests and lotteries and each type comes
with their own set of rules and regulations.
Not properly following them could “place your giveaway into the
classification of illegal lottery.” SpeakLifeTV will simply have participants
enter their name and email address onto a provided form and submit it without
asking for additional steps of criteria.
The second concern is media censorship.
Typical television shows that are broadcast over network and cable
channels are governed by the rules and regulations set forth by the Federal
Communications Commission. These shows
have to monitor their content, language and even the types of images that they
can show. Typical censorship laws will
not bind SpeakLifeTV because we are an Internet based channel that governs itself. Our site’s homepage will notify visitors of
our faith based, religious and family friendly content so that those who may
potentially be offended by our content will have the choice not to view it. Our intention is to bring joy and to speak
life into everyone’s day and not to offend or degrade in any way.
