Internet is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope. It links many people and parties. It has been used for a while by people on daily basis to help their jobs or make things they have to do become easier. While internet offers many conveniences, it also has some dangers.

Internet has some good things. First, we can learn new things easily. There are many tutorial videos on YouTube. And also many articles of learning materials and formulas. Second, it helps us to know places. For instance, if we get lost we can find ways by looking at Google Maps. This also can guide us to go to places we want to visit. Third, it allows us to communicate with other people easier. Applications like Line and Instagram let us to text or video chat people far away from us with the help of internet connection.

But internet also has some bad things. First, your personal data can be mined. It can be done by hacking your personal accounts. And those datas can be used to blackmail you or be used for the hackers’ personal purposes. Second, internet makes you prone to be cyberbullied if you’re active on social medias. The bully can bully you easily without fear as not presenting his identity while bullying you is possible by staying anonymous. The bully actions can be mocking, spreading lies about you, etc. Third, too much internet can be bad for your health. Internet can make you stay up late by keeping you checking social media like Instagram, or watching videos which can give you sleep deprivation. It can also make you worry about other people’s lives and compare it to yours constantly, which is of course not healthy, as it can give you unnecessary stress.

In conclusion, internet has both its own conveniences and dangers. In my opinion, we have to use the internet wisely as it gives tremendous advantages which are useful for our lives. Even though internet also has disadvantages, we simply have to avoid them since most are avoidable or preventable, and focus on the internet’s advantages.
