The internet has transformed the way information is shared and consumed, but it has also created problems that did not exist before. What are the most serious problems associated with the internet and what solutions can you suggest?

The ever-growing advancement in technology has provided society with the

internet

which offers so many conveniences on how the

information

is broadcasted and consumed.

Nevertheless

, it

also

generates several new issues.

This

essay will consider the most serious

problems

caused by the

internet

and outline possible solutions.

To begin

with, the freedom that the

internet

offers led to some damaging

problems

. To illustrate, the leeway in porn and violent

content

access by youngsters has caused a shift in their behaviour. The substantial growth in the criminal rate among teenagers,

such

as rape, is an

example

of

this

. Another dangerous issue is the invasion of one’s privacy. Individuals can access all kinds of

information

at their fingertips.

Consequently

, some people can use it to acquire the private

information

of some individuals for their benefit.

For

example

, recently, PeduliLindungi, a tracing application for citizen mobility, which is run by the

government

, experienced a cyber-attack, leading to the leak of millions of people’s

data

and vital

information

.

Therefore

, behind all the conveniences, the

internet

still has some serious matters that need to be solved. There are at least two measures that the

government

can do to tackle

problems

regarding the degrading

content

and privacy invasion caused by the

internet

. The

first

way is

law

enforcement. With either the amendment of some existing

law

or the creation of new

law

, the

government

can regulate how

content

can be accessed based on their respective appropriate ages.

For

example

, they can start with the restriction of

content

with abusive and violent images on the

internet

in their territory. By doing

this

, they can prohibit teenagers from those contents. Another alternative measure is to increase cyber and

data

security by implementing a multi-layer verification.

For

example

, in order to access

data

in their protected cloud, they can combine passwords, fingerprints, and voice and face recognition as layers before getting into the

data

.

As a result

, hackers can no longer manipulate the system.

Hence

, applying

law

enforcement and increasing

data

security can help the

government

solve the

problems

. In conclusion,

although

the

internet

offers an easy way to get

information

, it

also

brings consequential issues,

such

as the exposure of porn and abusive

content

for the young and

data

leak.

Nonetheless

, with the enforcement of

law

and implementation of multi-layer protection,

such

matters can be solved.
