Unit 2
A.
Generally About The Internet
Although the
internet is a very useful tool that can make people lives in modern society
much more convenient, it also has negative effects. For people who want to be
productive, the internet offers various opportunities to pursue this goal. But
there are also malicious individuals who want to exploit the internet for their
selfish motives.
Internet, no
doubt is one of the best inventions. There are lot of positive effects of
internet on our lives but at the same time there are some negative effects too.
Let’s take a look!
B.
The Positive
Effects of Internet to Indonesian Teenagers
5 Positive
Effects of the Internet
1.
It is easier to do research
Students occupy the large portion of internet user.
Before
electronic means of gathering information, students or researchers need to pay
a visit to libraries to access materials relevant to their research topics.
Nowadays, it will take just a subscription to a journal online or just browsing
online to search for literature required to develop one’s conceptual framework. Preparing
the review of literature is easier
and faster. Thus, more research gets published and knowledge generation is
greatly facilitated.
2.
Communication with family, friends and relatives is
faster
Everyone now can contact their parents easily by
online. Services such as Skype and Gmail enable a loved one to communicate with
another in almost any part of the globe where internet services are available.

3.
There is a great possibility to earn while working
from home
It is now possible to earn online through writing,
filling up forms, or even just clicking away on advertisements in the internet.
Information is a valuable thing that people are willing to pay. Through
advertisements posted online, manufacturers and sellers are able to increase the
possibility of having their products purchased.
4.
Faster business transactions and cheaper products
Sellers and
buyers can now transact through online paying facilities like Paypal or credit
cards. Buyers can surf online and select the products they want to buy. There
is no need to have a physical store to maintain as the products can be shipped
directly from the factory.
5.
Savings on travel cost
Through the
use of the internet, it is possible for executives or business managers to do
teleconferencing. They do not need to meet physically just to discuss matters.
This could save a lot on travel cost.
C.
The Negative
Effects of Internet to Indonesian Teenagers
5. Negative Effects of the Internet
1. Children, young adults and even
adults get addicted to games online
Online games can be addictive to children, young adults and even adults.
This can rob away precious time which otherwise should have been used for
something more productive (see Opportunity Cost)
2. Pornography is rampant
Anybody can easily upload pornographic material for commercial purposes or
just for fun. The young minds of children will be corrupted through their
exposure to things which are reserved for adults. Many well-known personalities
are also victimized by opportunistic and malicious people who want to discredit
others using their personal encounters.
 |
3. Loss of the human touch
People absorbed in their activities online tend to forget that there are
real people in their surroundings who need their attention or have
socialization needs. Social networking gives more importance to virtual friends
than real ones.
4. Criminal elements use information to advance their malicious intents
Unsuspecting internet users can fall victim to criminal elements who meddle
with their emails or do something nasty with their credit card information.
Phishing or fooling other people into believing that criminal-owned websites
are legitimate led to millions of money lost to misleading business
transactions.
5.
Abandonment of family
In one
instance, a couple in Korea was preoccupied with their virtual baby forgetting
to feed their real baby who died of hunger. People become insensitive as they
are absorbed by the hidden hand of the internet into its lair.
Considering that the effects of the internet to people
can be both positive and negative, there is a need to manage this technology
for man’s overall benefit. Of foremost concern is the need to make sure that
internet security is well in place to prevent the negative effects of the
internet to innocent people.

to use internet, without harm other people.
