I love the internet. When I have free time, or when I am working, chances are I am using the internet. It is an incredible way of communicating with other people and finding funny cat videos. However, the internet has given us its fair share of bad things. Many products of the internet came from bad intent.
Internet advertising is so huge, but it can be sketchy, especially if it comes up in form of a pop up. I hate pop up advertisements. If you are not careful, one of these pop up advertisements can cause havoc on your personal computer. I actually read somewhere that the person who created pop up advertisements ended up regretting his creation. Another abuse of the internet lies within the people who use it, especially in the form of cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is such a huge concern nowadays, especially among kids under the age of 18. I remember one site that was pretty big when I was younger was a website that people wrote anonymous questions to each other. It seems kind of harmless, but then people started to write mean and hurtful comments. This lead to a young girl ending her life. The internet is a powerful tool. As someone who work with it (see my previous post about my internship at StarTalk Radio), it is only going to get bigger, more powerful and more accessible. Make smart decisions, don't browse any harmful websites, and be kind to one another.
