When the Internet was first introduced to the public, it marked an extraordinary change in every aspect of our lives. Today, with the explosive increase of sites on the Internet, technology has taken another dramatic rise. In the midst of this technological explosion, we might stop and ask some key questions.

Clicking on an unwanted pop-up, which can appear on most sponsored sites, is enough to transport you to illegal websites.The viewing of inappropriate content isn't the only problem one can encounter.

An Anti-Virus program is a must have for every internet user.

It's important to know the few disadvantages there are to it, but it's more reasonable to focus on the positive aspects.

The main argument against doing over twenty hour’s part-time work, particularly for those international students who want the restriction of part-time hours cancelled, is the ability for them to earn a reasonable income in order to support their study. It is unfair that local students have no limitation of their work time. In fact, international students should also have the same rights as local students.

Because of the pressure on the teachers, they would focus more on teaching students how to take the tests rather than what they are supposed to teach in terms of academic achievements (Sacks 44). Standardized testing seems to turn these schools into the ones only for testing. Another issue with standardized testing is that it does not fit every race of students equally well.

For a school official to determine the presence of any such concerns, he must read the content of a publication; the revising of publications by the dean of students is arguably a preventive measure to identify speech that is “ungrammatical, poorly written, inadequately researched, biased or prejudiced, vulgar or profane, or unsuitable for immature audiences” (Hazelwood) before publication.
