Could You Live Without the Internet?
Using the Internet has become a normal part of my life. I grew up with this technology, along with cell phones. The Internet is a reliable way to find information quick and with advancements in technology, you can do virtually anything you want on the Internet. According to a Federal Communications Commission Survey, they have determined a few reasons why some people don't get online. The reasons they found were monthly cost too expensive, not comfortable using a computer, bad things can happen if they use the Internet, service activation and installation fee too high, they cannot afford a computer, there is nothing on the Internet they want to see or use, waste of time, or it isn't available where they live. These results were somewhat surprising to me because using the Internet is normal for me but I do know some people who don't have a computer or get on the Internet, they tend to be older though. Since I've lived with the Internet and grew up with it, I cannot imagine how life would be if I could never use it again. The people I do know that don't use the Internet, it makes sense that not using the Internet doesn't affect them because they weren't grown up in that environment. I think that when it comes to the use of the Internet, it depends on how often its necessary to use.
