The
last
two decades have seen enormous changes in the way people's lives are affected by IT, with many advances in this
field. However
, while
these technological advances have brought many benefits

. In addition
, the large size of the Web has meant that it is nearly impossible to regulate and control. This

kind of problem might even get worse in the future
at least until more regulated systems are set up. In conclusion, developments
in IT have brought many benefits
, yet I believe developments
relating to new technology in the future
are likely to produce many negative effects that will need to be addressed very carefully.Submitted by tuncbilekgozde on
