In the past, knowledge was contained in books. Nowadays, knowledge is uploaded to the internet. Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
Nowadays, there is a lot of
knowledge
on the internet
, which is quick and easy to access; however
, in the past, all knowledge
was contained in books
. This
essay will illustrate both advantages and disadvantages.
On the one hand, technology has dramatically developed these days, and the main statement is how the internet
has affected knowledge
. Firstly
, finding or surveying the internet
is easier than finding books
in a library because everything is uploaded to the internet
. In addition
, people would not spend their money on transport such
as buses, trains and others, to go to libraries or book shops. To illustrate, if someone decided to buy some foreign books
, he would spend more time commuting, that is
unnecessary because, nowadays, there are many pdf-books
on the internet
. Additionally
, people can learn what they want to know on the internet
, and the internet
does not have age restrictions. For example
, many universities have opened their online lessons to persuade people to learn about online lessons.
On the other hand
, there are a few disadvantages to the internet
. On the internet
, information can be easily taken, and some writers cannot obtain their money by selling books
on the internet
. For example
, if someone bought Ielts pdf-books
, he could upload them on the internet
to share for free. Moreover
, the government should add more laws to protect some writers.
To conclude, the knowledge
, which is on the internet
, has a lot of advantages such
as saving money or time and others, however
, it has a few disadvantages such
as the laws, which have to protect the writers.Submitted by nutt.spider on
