Government and social network???

In the past decade we as a society have been able to use the internet in more advance ways than ever before. We can download or upload data freely, we can publish what we think and the internet has brought us closer together.  I think government intervention on the internet will not be efficient or effective giving the cases in the past century.

The ability to download and upload data has made the internet more useful, not only it makes information readily available but helps us make decision in a faster process. The people of the United States are able to publish what they think on the internet, having a beneficial tool such as the internet we can make publishing faster, easier, and cost effective. The internet has brought us closer together with communication tools such as Facebook, Twitter and Google Blogger and having demonstrated ability to help us communicate and organized.

I think government has it place in helping the people be safe but regulating social networks and the internet will not make the internet a safe place. It will cost the people more tax dollars and give groups such “anonymous” incentives to find loop holes to penetrate are systems. I think the decision should be in place with the people not the government.
