The real danger of the internet is to produce
a future generation incapable of real thinking. They will be so spoon-fed by
the knowledge that the internet provides; the brain that needs to be naturally
evolved for problem solving and real thinking will grow in a different
direction that I am afraid will be…dumb. It is alright if the internet will always be around and accessible, but what if things go wrong, like running out of oil that
currently powers the world? Another real danger that the internet poses is
the moral corruption of the young. I think Saudi Arabia should be a model for
the rest of the world until a technology is developed to really protect children
from the net. Present safety measures are not good enough especially in third
world countries where the young know more about the net than their parents
meaning parents cannot police what their children can and cannot access on the
net. While schools can help in veering the young towards the right use of the
net; the home is still the crucible for the proper use of the net.
