Internet: is it bad or good? Nowadays, the “Web” has become accessible to everyone, at least in the civilized countries. All kinds of people connect everyday to the Internet through the use of smartphones, personal computers, iPad and so on… But is it a good or a bad thing? On the advantage of the Internet, there is the opportunity to create contacts between people of differents cultures and countries, you can be in “touch” with a person from the other side of the world in a matter of seconds. Another positive side of the Internet is the possibility to access at the largest pool of knowledge in the world. You can learn everything you want for free, without the need of paying a teacher or dozen of books. Still, you need to have the ability to skim all the useless information present into the Web and find only those who can really be helpful to you. In fact there are some bad sides in the Internet. One of them is the dependence some people fall in when surfing the web. Facebook, Youtube, Netflix and especially videogames can be extremely entertaining, and for that reason, extremely addictive if used for too much time. Overall, I think the advantages of the Internet far exceed the disadvantages, and I think it can be an incredibly useful tool if used with coscence.
