Some people believe that it is good to share as much information as possible in scientific research, business and the academic world. Others believe that some information is too important or too valuable to be shared freely.

People’s opinions differ as to whether or not it is good to
share
information
such
as science and business to the
world
. I agree with the view that it is valuable to
share
specific
information
between countries, but I would
also
argue that it is safer to keep some important
information
classified. From the
world
development prospective, it is beneficial for members across the
world
have access to more and valuable
information
, there are various reasons why we should do that.
Firstly
, one country cannot achieve huge technology advancements or breakthroughs all by themselves, they need to exchange and discuss test results with many experts around the
world
.
Secondly
, it is
also
necessary to get some fund support from businesses and organizations in different countries to accomplish tough tasks.
Finally
, with these academic journals, reports and dissertation has been shared global, students in different nations can learn from these materials and purchase higher qualifications.
However
, I can understand why those people refused to
share
important
information
freely. Perhaps the best example of
this
would be database of military. As long as
this
information
can be seen by other countries, we might put ourselves in danger. Citizens
information
such
as appearance, fingerprint or other personal details may be used for criminal purposes.
Furthermore
, database of military should
also
be kept safely, if a country has access to
this
kind of
information
, they know the weakness of the nation, it may cause devastating effects
such
as wars or conflicts. In conclusion, it seems to me that we should
share
scientific research, business and academic freely, while keeping data
such
as military classified.
