(2) Hot Issues!

In our world, people want to be updated to celebrity buzz and latest news around the world. In these news,ssues cannot be absent. Like Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth's breakup which caused Miley's change. (ew) There are always issues everywhere: at school, at your office, in the showbiz world and also in ICT.

One of the popular issues is hacking. This is done when someone has an unauthorized access to the website. Hacking causes another type of issue, DOS or Denial of Service. This makes a network resource unavailable to its intended users.

The most frequent nowadays is cyberbullying where a person sends hurtful messages to another person. This is very dangerous because it sometimes cause psychological effects to the person being bullied or somethimes, suicide. That's one of the reasons why the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012  or the Anti-Cybercrime Law was implemented. It secures all the internet users from harmful persons in the internet. This makes the internet a safer place than it is before.

Other issues are malware, flooding, spamming, computer addiction and digital divide which is the discrepancy between people with access and people without access to ICT.

We must avoid these issues by being friendly and having proper etiquette on the web.
