Internet bowdlerization


The Internet benefits the world since it contains valuable information that is used for research. Unfortunately the Internet has both good and bad influences.  Most people use the internet for the good, for example like when finding history facts or doing self teaching for example using the website Khan Academy.  When it comes to bad influences, it is using inappropriate sites or websites.  Every person wants to have a complete freedom when using the internet but some people use inappropriate websites.
  Parents want to protect their children from outside influences, children are always curious so it is possible that they visit inappropriate websites such as violent or pornographic websites.  This behavior could affect teenagers negatively.  Research has shown that children who use these websites may have delayed brain development.
            Censoring the websites used in the internet is a great idea depending on which types of websites are used.  An illustration is spark notes; it is a websites that does your reading.  Most people when assigned homework turns out to be lazy and don’t do their reading so the only option is using spark notes to get free summarized and analyzed notes and ideas.  Spark notes should be censored because it lessens how much the student reads and their reading capability.   
            Internet should be censored in order to protect people especially teenagers because they are the most susceptible to the negative effects of the internet.  Internet provides both constructive and not useful information things but that not useful things may cause harm to people who visit those websites.
