Some people believe that it is a good idea 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. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Sharing
information
with or without charge is now controversial. Some people advocate the free spreading of valuable knowledge because of its benefits to individuals and society, but I hold the opinion that some vital and priceless information
should not be shared without any fee.
On the one hand, people support the sharing of science, business and academic world – related information
because of some reasons. Firstly
, as for individuals, free access to this
information
will facilitate their work and study. For instance
, if a successful businessman shares
experience about setting up and running Suggestion
shared
share
business
effectively, many others can learn from it and start their own business on the right way. Suggestion

Secondly
, the society has a knowledgeable workforce since knowledge is exchanged and people can access ideas that are worth sharing. For example
, the programs introducing more effective and attractive teaching methods can be accessed by different teachers who then
apply them in their classes.
On the other hand
, I agree with the view that the access to some crucial and valuable information
should be charged. The initial reason is that some pieces of information
are priceless because they are discovered after endless efforts and hard work of a person or even a team. Charging a fee can not only show the gratitude to

Accept comma addition

also
enhance the responsibility of users. For instance
, to create many online vocabulary sets which help learners remember and apply new words, a teacher works dedicatedly
for hours. Therefore
, it will be unfair if this
work is shared freely. Furthermore
, some information
is too important to be widely spread. For instance
, if the instruction about producing nuclear weapons is leaked, many terrorists or criminals can use it illegally.
In conclusion, although
some people are in favour of sharing academic knowledge freely, I strongly believe that some information
should not be shared because of its importance and value.Submitted by Minh Khuê Vũ on
