Some people say that the internet provides people with a lot of valuable information. Others think access to so much information creates problems. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Evidently, the

internet

has become an indispensable part of today’s modern world. There are,

however

, different perspectives on

this

twenty-

first

-century miracle. While some people hold that it is an invaluable source of

information

, there is an opposing belief that

great

Suggestion

greater

problems may arise from so much

information

available.

To begin

with, some people reasonably argue that we would not have progressed so

remarkably

Suggestion

remarkable

if it hadn’t been for the rapid spread of

information

thanks to the

internet

. The main reason they give is that the

internet

has made it easy and fast to store and transfer

information

worldwide. An example that springs readily to mind is numerous archives online that supply

information

on almost every area of knowledge. Supporters

also

make a compelling case by adding that free access to data in the new era has enabled us to interact with each other more closely and directly.

On the other hand

, there is the view that the abundance of data available on the net can cause harm to people everywhere. The advocates of

this

viewpoint simplistically claim that sensitive

information

in the wrong hands can result in disaster.

For example

, the mine of

information

provided by search engines can be used by terrorists or villains to harm others. What they entirely overlook is the fact that only those who intentionally use

this

information

for evil purposes should be held responsible for everything. After all, for

such

people as criminals and lawbreakers, the ends justify the means, and

thus

, they will ultimately seek the

information

they need elsewhere. To sum up,

although

some people lose sight of the fact that the

internet

, like any other achievement in the technological world, is a double-edged sword, and ignore that access to

information

can have positive outcomes as well, a more optimistic and open-minded view fairly concludes that putting the

internet

to wrong use does not necessarily outweigh its potential advantages. One cannot help but notice that the

information

accessible on the

internet

nowadays is of great value for our modern life.
