Cyber-crime refers to any illegal activity performed over the internet. We as a user, have to be careful and never share sensitive information to unauthorized people. Internet also facilitates the downloading of various other software which protect the system from any kind of virus and malicious software.

Suitable actions should be taken by the government to punish those indulging in cyber-crimes and make the platform of internet safe for everyone’s use. People have different mindsets and opinions, hence they should be taught about the downsides of using internet with care.

Traffic
Approximately 3.2 billion people use the internet.

1.7 billion of those users are from Asian countries.

For reference, by the way, Facebook claims to have about 2 billion monthly active users. Which means that, for all intents and purposes, about 2/3rds of the internet is using Facebook on a consistent basis. All of which means you could make a serious case that Mark Zuckerberg is one of the most powerful people who has ever lived. After all, he controls the most massive communication network in human history.

30,000 websites are hacked every day. While most of these hackers play simple pranks (like hiding a joke on the website or rearranging menu items) some have very malicious intentions… like stealing user data or credit card numbers.

The trend of internet has now transformed to an addiction. We are always hooked onto the internet and gadgets these days. This addiction is harmful for both physical and mental health. Most of the times, internet acts as a distraction and reduces productivity at work place. Though it is a medium for learning and accessing information, excessive and untimely use of internet can be extremely harmful.
