One problem the internet caused stated in the documentary is, it is very hard for parents and authorities to regulate what kids do on the computer. Since the internet is so easy to access via new technologies, authoritative figures just cannot be present with the kids all the time. Another issue the internet has caused reported by the documentary is by it being so addictive, it has taken time away from studying, school work and activities such as reading. This is a problem because education is almost a must in today’s society. However, the documentary fails to acknowledge how the internet has helped kids by providing ways to find answers and acquire research and knowledge.

They can choose to engage in deep thinking activities. Too much of anything is not good for any one, and this also applies to internet usage. Scholars say that the price of technology is alienation and that this indicates that the more distracted an individual becomes, the less able they are to experience human emotions such as empathy and compassion. It is still too early to tell what the results of the future effects of the internet, but as Carr states, “An intellectual technology exerts its influence by shifting the emphasis of our thought. As the brain adapts to the new medium, the most profound changes will take place over several generations’
Jane Mukala Professor Hart ENG 101 March 18, 2015 Does The Internet Make You Dumber? Nicholas Carr argues that the internet has bad effects on the brain. He says that the internet makes it harder to remember anything, and that it is harder to move memories into long term memories. Carr thinks that by skimming information, it will diminish the ability to read long texts; I disagree with him because the internet makes actually makes us smarter and think accurate because we are aware of every little information around us. Carr thinks that excessive use of the internet might cause permanent changes to the way our brains work and we don’t have to remember as much, because we have RAM (Random Access Memory).
On Verizon smart phones, which require more data plans, which can be costly more than and internet service. Another weakness of Verizon is poor customer service, which the company will try to improve on. A person could never just speak to one person about a problem, which the company has different agents to handle different effects dealing with people
Also, when America itself has problems, we should be more focused on correcting our own country rather than helping others. Not many people realize the fact that the U.S. really isn’t doing as well as we should be. Putting money into operations such as “Operation Iraqi Freedom” because of the fact that we lost an incredible amount of money on something pretty pointless. Iraq is still terrible and will continue to be terrible. Spending money on improving other countries isn’t always going to have a positive impact.
With all the new ways to communicate via the internet, it has become easier to reach out to those who might not be helped otherwise. Online tutoring, support groups, and colleges being able to promote education are all newer ways to reach out to America’s youth and convince them to stay in school. In my own situation, I was able to use the internet for better research abilities for looking into colleges, and I had better resources to help with the application process and applying for financial aid. Social media is a great way to reach out to youth in
Technology is moving and advancing very fast and any attempt to curtail or limit accessibility only serves as a fuel to move faster in order to circumvent any such internet roadblocks. The bill also allows the persecution of any one who assists and provides a way to bypass the system, but this will simply drive the cyberworld to find more obscure means to fight for their freedom to free media and information. The internet community, which includes us and everyone else in the world, sees this as a curtailment of freedom of expression and the repression of creativity rather than being its protector. Mark Lemley, David S. Levine, & David G. Post in their article Don't Break the Internet called SOPA "not only [a violation of] basic principles of due process by depriving persons of property without a fair hearing and a reasonable opportunity to be heard, it also constitutes an unconstitutional abridgement of the freedom of speech protected by the First Amendment". Many fear that this could cripple internet technology innovation as well as
THE IMPORTANCE OF NEW TECHNOLOGY In his essay the “Net is a waste of time” the author William Gibson published in the New York Times magazines, strives to prove the ineffectiveness of the Net despite the fact that he believed “Most social change is technology-driven”. His point in general could be a valid one, but he decides not to provide the support his argument needs and uses unconvincing evidence. I am from Africa where the use of internet is one luxury that still not allows oneself. For those down there who do not know it use, it would be easier to agree with Gibson statement. But as a student, I see things different ways because the Net is a strong way to communicate, to inform people and for research purposes.
It’s time to turn the computers off. The minds of this generation should not be spoiled by the new wave industrialization called social media. If we do not come to understand the harsh realities that technology shadows under its web of social networking sites soon, we may never be able to repair the damage that it causes. Social media can be a huge blessing, but at the same time, if we’re not careful how we use it, it can become a huge curse. Do I Really Have Join Twitter?
