Information that inspired my ideas
"Over the last year, research found, nearly two-thirds of large companies were affected, reporting an average of one incident a week. The two biggest areas of misuse were excessive personal emails and access to inappropriate websites. The results were revealed in the initial findings of the 2004 Department of Trade and Industry biennial information security breaches survey."
"Currently, there are many ways our society misuses technology today. [...]Technology misuse is also not limited to the home, but is found in businesses and schools as well. Over the course of this blog, I've discussed the different ways in which society misuses technology. Technology isn't all bad. If it weren't for technology, we wouldn't have items such as MRI machines or other medical equipment that helps to save lives everyday. However, there is a fine line between technology helping to facilitate our lives, making them easier and safer, and running our lives."
"The benefits the Internet has brought to the classroom are undeniable. Long gone are the days when all students could turn to when working on their science projects and term papers were out-of-date encyclopedias, as the Internet brings students the latest information in the blink of an eye [...] “Educational videos available online provide another way to help them understand the classroom material better. My wife and I also think it helps them learn a foreign language,” he said. But he also included a word of caution, stating: “However, Internet access at home needs to be monitored. If not, the children will only use the Internet to play games online.”"
