DOPA?

It’s hard to tell what exactly everyone can look at on the Internet.  There’s so much on it.  There is billions and billions of information on it that every person with an Internet connection with a computer or smartphone can use to filter through this information to literally find anything they are looking for.  It’s no wonder parents literally have no clue what their children are looking at on the Internet.  Ever since the World Wide Web came more predominant in the early 90′s, images have become more exceedingly available.  At the clock of a button, a person can search something like “cat” and get a plethora of images of cats that they can choose from that suits their liking.  But pretty much anything can be put on the web now.  The laws for publishing anything on the Internet are far different from the laws fro publishing a book.  All someone has to do it go to a website, create a username and password, and then Volia!.  You instantly can access all of the tools the website offers.  A main problem with all this “open” access is that pretty much anyone can put anything on the web.  Be that as it may, anything can be put on including pornography.  I think that the quote “the explosion in digital information, in the form of web pages and downloadable photographs, has put at the fingertips of millions material that only a few years ago no one could have found without great effort and expense” was one from the article that I believe sums up everything that my blog talks about (231).
