Internet is not so bad and you know it

Are you fed up of people pish-poshing about the evil that is the net? Raise your hand if you also know anyone who would proudly state" "Oh, I rarely use the internet?", which, let's face it, can easily be equated to "Who needs vegetables anyway?". And let's not forget alarmists like Hillary Clinton who put on the scary voice when talking about children and the dangers of the INTERNET. Well, pass this article around to anyone who corners you into such a useless debate. It's an interesting piece that addresses the various unfounded fears of groups - i.e. Sexual predators hunting for victims online, unlimited access to porn through the net, bullying, you name it. Kudos to him for a fascinating read.
