The Internet's Impact on Citizens participation...
Internet has become more and more necessary for our lives as time goes by, we can do pretty much anything on the internet. From online shopping to blogging to bank transactions. The internet has revolutionized our lives. One of the most useful things is that nowadays information spreads across the world in just seconds. Internet brings mostly good things for our society. However, when it comes to media we have to be aware that not all we read or hear is going to be true.
Out of all the things that have come out of the internet I would say that blogging is one of the most powerful. People all over the world can share their opinions on different topics. It is nice to see how the U.S. allows people to express freely through their blogs, unlike some other governments such as China, Russia and Middle Eastern countries, if you say something that goes against the government most likely you will be prosecuted, even killed.
So, I think we should be grateful for the freedom that we have and put it in exercise by speaking our minds. Some people wish they could, but they cannot.
