The internet has become a major source of information for many people. However, online information become a major source of information for many people. However, online information has usually not gone through the same checks as newspaper articles or books. There is a higher risk that some of the facts or quotations from a particular source in an article are false. Whereas newspapers might lose customers if people find out they gave been "selling lies", a blog can be easily deleted. If people base their opinions on information they find online, they could well be basing their opinion on false facts. Since the internet gives equal space to material of greatly varying quality, this is a serious risk.So I believe that internet brings more harm than good.
Thought there is many conflicts there is many good points like social media allowing message with distance friend and relatives . Without the internet , we will not know what is happening through the world . Internet got most of the answer that we don't know . It will help us get information that can help us through life . |

Everyone"s privacy can be greatly harmed by the Internet.We can quickly see what politicians and celebrities are doing when the paparazzi posts news pictures online, but people can also see what we"ve been doing. Some sites store information. Some ask us to fill in information which can be sold to other sites for commercial purposes. Once we post something online, it is almost impossible to erase it from the net. Some websites store information. Some ask us to fill in information which can be sold to other sites for commercial purposes. As the Internet gains more and more users the temptation for criminals to gain our private information becomes greater. Hackers can hide their true location when engaging in illegal activities online, so the likelihood of their being brought to justice is low. Whenever people post something online, it becomes almost impossible to erase, and with the proliferation of social networks posting personal information online is becoming second nature, this is a dangerous precedent.
There are numerous hotline that can prevent hackers and also due to this hotline , we can find the source of the problem and greatly reduce it . So the data being send through the internet that can be erase through a simple call . |

Many people are just addicted to the internet. They can"t stop browsing, they are hooked on gaming and they spend too much time indoors. Instead of going out for a walk or play outside, they sit behind their computers for hours. A sad consequence of the addiction is that they are so used to high speed information by just clicking on the next link that they can no longer appreciate a good book, or a nice conversation with a friend. By failing to take exercise they grow fat and unhealthy. Their family life suffers and their only relationships are online " they can"t cope in the real world.So the internet does more harm than good.
