Band 5+: Some people say that the internet does more harm than good. What is your view?

Note: Both the topic and the essay were created by one of our users.

Nowadays, the internet has drastically spread around the world and there is almost no one who does not use the internet in the world. In such cases, it is claimed that the internet has more harm than good things as wrong vain news and entertainment can be produced through the internet, and young people are addicted to using social media. Despite some bad effects of the internet, I strongly believe that the internet has more advantages than bad side effects for many reasons provided in the following paragraphs.

Firstly, The Internet has been regarded as a worldwide innovation network for people and the world’s business. Researches show that 87% of people cannot live without the internet a day for their needs and searching for new information and news. Social media platforms, such as Facebook, Google and Twitter, are some popular platforms which people widely use to search world breaking news and entertainment. In such a case, the internet is essential to use these kinds of daily uses and ordinary recreations for people. Therefore, it is obvious that the internet has numerous good things for the world.

In addition, the internet helps to reduce wasted time on chores and further work for people. As online shopping, google platform, and youtube are incredibly popular around the world, people can reduce wasted time and unnecessary time going somewhere further. For instance, most mothers in the world can shop online using the internet without going to the supermarket. As a result, they can use their precious time to cultivate their children and do household chores. Thus, we can see that people use the internet widely and efficiently in our environment rather than harmful things.

Some people argue that the internet is addictive and has the ability to spread the wrong information to people, especially young teenagers. However, it just depends on people’s mindset and self-control since they should notice what the wrong information and breaking news spread to the world. Moreover, today teenagers have mortality to manage their time to use the internet and study as well. Also, students can research new things easily through the internet without going to the library. That is why there are more benefits of using the internet than bad effects on people.

To conclude, the internet is undoubtedly an advantageous thing to help people in their daily lives and develop world business. So, there are barely a few disadvantages of the internet in our environment, and people can fix these effects with their self-control. To sum up, we can assume that these above-mentioned points are always leading to good things about the internet than harmful bad effects.
