people rely on computers and on the

for several tasks, ranging from studying to communicating. Many hold the view that, while being an essential tool to keep everybody in touch, the

might on the other side be the source of erroneous pieces of

. In

this

essay I will address these standpoints, explaining why I firmly agree with them. It is quite undeniable that the

internet

is currently the prevalent mean through which messages are delivered. The main reason for

that is

the increasing amount of messaging apps available for smartphones and computers that keep everybody in touch. These applications, given the ubiquitous diffusion of smartphones, are available to every bracket of society, even to the elderly.

Furthermore

, the

internet

has become accessible from any place in the world. In fact, you just need a computer or a smartphone and, in every park or city square, it is easy to find a free Wi-Fi hotspot ready to keep you in contact with all of your friends.
