CONROLLING THE INTERNET

I had listened one podcast:

BBC Daily World News Service / 25.05.2010 /

I had listened the first part of the podcast, two times. I had faced some new words while listening the podcast, and tried simply to understand their meanings. 

Internet is really our "friend" and the following article is about the controlling "our friend" and restricting the appearance of some of its servers.

A REAL BATTLE COMING UP OVER THE WWW!

Internet is an essence part of most people's lives, all over the world. Everyone likes it, because it's unrestricted and wholly independent to "walk through our one of the best friend - internet". Most of us have never wished the controlling of "our friend".

But nowadays, most governments aim to control the World Wide Web, especially, China. As Chinese consist a 43% of all net users, all over the world.

The main objective in controlling the internet, or net restricting, for most countries, is to fight against dangerous information, such as pornography. In addition, Pakistan restricts anti Islamic comments, and Iran restricts political materials. USA, as one of the biggest net user, suggests the internet companies to restrict the services, some. 

As it was mentioned, net has beautiful and harmful sides. The beauty of net is that, it's open to everyone is same familiar in WWW. On other hand, it has harmful sides, that as for more users, the aren't dangerous, at all. And that's why, there appear two opposite tendency: governments, that aim to restrict the independence of WWW, and users, that won't be simply agree with the governments.

In spite of these, some companies, such as Apple, think, the consumers prefer the controlled WWW. Though the absolutely effective result hasn't given yet, Apple and some other companies have already practiced the controlled net system in produced technologies.

       But, nowadays, controlling in the Information Technologies sphere is going to be improved and this tendency will be continued in the future, too.
