Negative Impacts of Internet

The advent of the profit has been one of the most exciting major events in the second one-half of the 20thtcentury. The ancient dream of a scholar knows all things happening in the world without venturing outdoors has finally become a reality. Since 1993, the meshing started to understand off. At present, the Internet has parcel out to more than 180 countries and regions, connecting more than 600,000 municipal networks of various types, hooking up more than 20 million computers uncommitted to 120 million users (2% of the entire global population).However, due to its innate transnational, decentralized, aerofoil and unregulated temperament, the Internet as a free, open and anarchic thingummy has brought various countries great risks First of all, the internet has negatively influenced the countries political relation because the Internet explicitly propagates and implicitly spreads western democratic values. These views are mainly spread through whatsoever governmental organi zations or government-sponsored groups in the West.They select few typical stories that reflect western democracy and wrapped them up in attractive packages. Then they put these stories in visual and/or speech sound format and give them to people with great appeal and attractiveness. Most of those who baffle visited these websites come off praising the beauty of western democracy. The Internet provide be also used as a tool to trauma national sovereignty and interfere with other countries internal affairs.In rough websites, when agencies and organizations of some foreign governments publish data, they treat areas such as mainland China and Tibet as independent countries. The website of the U. S. National Geographic Society once published a map of Asia, which flagrantly excludes the South China Sea and chinaware from our territories. Another example is that some websites suck up published views supporting Formosan and Tibetan independence and providing some so-called histor ical evidence. This has clearly interfered with Chinese internal affairs.The politically intended websites all piddle certain direct of deceptiveness, influencing people to accept their views subconsciously, albeit with some doubt at first, thus quivering peoples firm stance of ideological correctness. Secondly, the internet causes heathen degradation because the Internet advocates western life-styles. These websites display various aspects of western family and life, and the overwhelming majority of them have positive portrayals of the western life-style.It makes people intrust that the West seems to be countries of absolute freedom and paradise for individual exercise where private life is without obstacles and external inferences. Partial cultivation such as this is particularly appealing to our youths whose life philosophy and worldview have yet to mature. galore(postnominal) of these youths aspire with great diligence to go abroad just to adjustment a way of living. The Internet also poses a potential little terror to data warfare.Some countries have applied the Internet into military operations, have conducted mock attacks against other countries networks, or have fabricated deceptive tuition harmful to other countries military forces. At a time when the tuition networks have become an important infrastructure of the nation and the military, the information warfare will be a war without the explosives, a war with a high invisibility, low cost, international, and multi-area (political, military, economic, social and material resources etc. approach. The high-tech nature and the unpredictability of combat intelligence in information warfare have made it extremely difficult to organize an information defense. The U. S. Department of defence force has specifically established an Executive Committee on Information Warfare, which is attached to studying national policy for information warfare, and conducting war games on some websites.Accordi ng to a report by the Sunday Thames of England, on 29 June (1998), experts from Great Britain and the United States conducted a secret military exercise in the destructive attacks on computers, with the objective of preventing a blitzkrieg in an information war. The result of the exercise indicates that just a few hackers can inactivate the stock market, military systems and airports, making the superpower, the United States, unable to move around.In a future information war, national financial transaction centers, stocks replace centers, air traffic control centers, telecommunications control centers, railway control central office and various military networks, will inevitably become the main targets of information warfare. In conclusion, the internet is detrimental to a countrys culture, politics and security. Since its impossible to close the networks we must control and do our silk hat to destroy its negative impacts when we can.Adapted from http//www.uscc.gov/researchpaper s/2000_2003/pdfs/neg.pdf
