The internet can be one of the most helpful tools in your tool belt or can lead to you "learning" only opinions of others thinking they are facts. People who actually look at more than one source for information and try to see both sides of a subject now have more of an opportunity to gather that information. The only problem is you are going to have to dig through a lot of internet trash to get there.
Even the news sites are either very liberal or very conservative, neither side really gives the whole story. The biggest example of this is the 99%. How many of those actually knew why they were camping out? How many of them just saw one thing in one persons blog about how they are changing society and thought, "Wow I should do that." For those who actually take the time to see both sides of an issue though saw that most of the 99% were just spoiled kids wasting mommy and daddy's money. I think the internet is worth what you use it for, research topics and gather information or just watch Youtube all day.
agree. angel or devil - it's all in your mind and in your perceptions. Me, I'm all for the internet and it's complete freedom.
