The Indian Appropiation Act contained several acts enacted by the US Congress between the late 19th century and the early 20th century.
One of the most outstanding acts was the Indian Appropriations Act from 1871. According to it, Indians would not be treated anymore as an "independent nation, tribe, or power". In turn, Indians would be considered as "wards" of the federal goverment. This provision considers Indians somehow like children, as if they needed a tutor.
From this moment onwards, the US goverment did not have to mantain endless negotiations to sign treaties with the different Indian tribes. Also treaties that had been signed before the Act were not enforceable anymore.
The act made much easier for the US government to exercise control over lands which were previously dominated by the Indians.

I think <u>it's a good idea that we get conscious as a society about preserving important documents, which safety we may take for granted because they're stored online</u>. However, when it comes to content that is harder to categorize as either public or private, we need to think more carefully about how we make that distinction.
In the past, people wrote stuff on notepads in their home or kept diaries which should be considered private; and you could also write a book and release it or letters to the newspaper which would be considered public. Now we can also do those things but there are platforms that place our information in between, like cloud storage or social media. <u>Is a facebok post private or public?</u>
I believe the law should adapt in order to protect our information against disclosure and make the distinctions between public and private affairs in online platforms more clear to keep a balance.
Hope this helps!
