Nowadays, it is obvious that big companies store personal data of people. However, while the existence of internet companies offers an appropriate advertisement and personal cloud data on the internet, it also has a number of drawbacks.
The most significant benefit of internet companies and organisations is having stored information in cloud data that you can get it back rapidly any time. As the cloud data provided we can be less concerned about our files and photos in case we delete them accidentally. The memory of our devices is not an issue as well, since they offer a huge amount of space online. Another positive is the personal advertisement that suits for only us, individually. For example, my dad always finds his ads very useful as they only appear at a needed time with a needed service.
On the other hand, there are also disadvantages in trusting personal information to the internet organisations. Most companies hold people’s information without even announcing it. A good illustration of this is Apple. Recently this company found storing information of its customers for many years without letting its users to know about it. This may cause a huge negative impact on individuals, who are confidential and strict about their data. Moreover, not only them, but all people, are afraid of the leak of their information since it happens pretty often these years.
To conclude, while large internet companies provide stored data and individual advertisement, they also have to deal with the downsides connected to the transparence and security of their work. Therefore, people should think carefully before utilizing online services.
