Internet: democracy or tyranny ?


With Internet, people think they can express themselves on every subjects. This is a kind of democracy beacause you can have an opinion and write it on Facebook, on blogs, on consumers sites. With Internet everyone has the rights to speak, to think and to publish informations.

But this image of democraty can be fake beacause some countries (like China) try to control Internet. Some sites are forbidden by the government. This control can be seen as an attack to the democracy.

The bad use of Internet is also an example of the dangerous aspects of Internet. Pedophiles can use Internet to trap someone, weird people can take your profil picture to use it on pornography sites... All these examples show that Internet isn't just a playtime. It can be seen as a tyranny for the one who have been trapped or abused.

If you are careful of your use of Internet, you will enjoy your online activities but if you don't pay attention, Internet can be very dangerous. From democraty, Internet can be seen as a tyranny.
