THE INTERNET BENEFITS

In the article, “ Human Rights Report Faults China’s Curbs On Internet “ the author describes the issue of blocking the Internet access. At present, there are many countries limiting the access of Internet. Also, many people are imprisoned simply for expressing their peaceful views online. Other countries are applying regulations against NGOs and the mass media for political freedom. Many people use the Internet with good objectives. The Internet should not be limited because it provides good learning resources, good communication and technology and good economic impact for many countries.
Many people use the internet in order to widen their knowledge and to be ready to confront the different challenges that high learning demands. For instance, many teachers in my country are being trained in using the internet resources and the different websites that provide information related to the level and class they are teaching. As a result many teachers have been experiencing technology versus classes and they are very happy with the results students are receiving. Many students have expressed the difference in the classes they are taking now by saying that they feel classes are more interesting and motivating when they use the internet. For that reason the internet is a valuable resource that offers people, students and the society in general good opportunities in a globalized world.
The Internet is also an important means of communication. Today communication and technology are both broad disciplines that allocate many benefits. For example, in my city, there are many students that belong to communities. They used to spend many days doing their homework and usually had to come to the city to get books or information that helped them to finish their homework. Nowadays, they have the Internet café that provides this service for $1 an hour. Also, communities’ people had to go to the city to make phone calls. Now they communicate using the e-mail. These are some of the common benefits given by the Internet.
This is also a good way to protect the economy of the country and citizens as well. The Internet has provided many business people the chance to do business and advertise online, which has given a real boost to the world’s economy. For example, I had to buy a book for my new class novel and film with Ms. Heidi. Unfortunately, books ran out at the university bookstore and I did not know what to do. So, my friend explained to me the way I could order it on the internet and finally I have the book with me.
In conclusion, neither countries nor government can limit the internet use so far, because that would be like living outside of the planet earth. The Internet should be available to all people to improve their economic situation, their communication and their lifesyles.
