USE AND MISUSE OF INTERNET
Edit this debate POSTED BY: bhuvanesh KARMA: 10
I am talking about use and misuse/abuse of the internet. These days most persons are misusing the internet instead of using it productively; they waste time on porn and social networking sites.

As far as porn is concerned most boys are peer-pressured into viewership; there is a wealth of parental control software available to block sites that teenagers/children cannot unblock without using secret passwords that only parents know. Using Proxies to access these sites can also be prevented. Either...
