Internet Pros and Cons!

For every invention there is always a good or bad sector. The creation of the internet evolved our society in many aspects.  I will list the pros and cons of internet usage.
Internet Pros:
   Research
      The Internet provides an enormous database of information. Students, researchers, and the general public, all use the internet to obtain information they need.
 Entertainment
    Surfing the web can supply entertainment to any populace. Internet usage increases instant awareness of the media and leisure activities; checking horoscopes, blogging, and online gaming.
Display’s Society’s Evolution
Technology has come a long way over the past years. A few years ago people used a dial-up connection to surf the net. That method had many flaws and took long periods of time to connect; it also disabled the usage of house phones while connected. Every day there are new sites becoming popular to use.
Freedom of Speech
Although American citizens have the right to freedom of speech, the internet is a free enterprise to display their right.
Communication
Staying in touch with family, friends, and employers has never been easier. The web has tons of ways to communicate with anyone. Using emails such as Yahoo, AOL and, Google all come with the instant messaging feature. If an email is ineffective there are always social networks. Facebook and Twitter have become extremely popular to the general public.
Simplicity
The World Wide Web may seem like a task to operate, but quite the contraire. Most websites are user friendly and very easy to adapt to.

For every up there is a down, and for every pro there is a con. Although internet is a critical part of today’s society there are still many flaws within it.
Internet Cons:
Spam
Computer hackers create spam, which can slow your computer down. Viruses are also sometimes hidden in pop-up blockers which can be called spam.
Internet Predators
While using social networks, posting too personal information could be severely dangerous. Younger children should always have supervision while surfing the net.
