The internet is SUCH a safe place because you have control over your privacy settings(thats right facebook) and some other sites that are related to facebook. The interesting thing is though why would you put your adress on your facebook account, ITS OUTRAGEOUS! Thank goodness for privacy right. The internet won't be so safe when Al Capone comes back and finds out about................... THE INTERNET!!

[] This link is a news article from the globeandmail.com and this article states that the average Canadian uses the internet 43.5hrs a month compared to 23.1hrs as the global average. As a Canadian I don't know why Canadians are so engaged in the online world rather then reality. Telecommunications Comission report states that approximately 95% of Canadian households can acess broadband services using landline facilities. Now this is the modern day I'm talking about and as technology continues to advance into the future, its most likely that the global average and Canadian average will increase as the internet becomes more convient to users across the world. So maybe it might become more safer as internet security companies find ways to counter hackers or it may become more unsafe as hackers advance. Who knows the whole world may run on the internet and if it becomes hacked our whole society is compromised. Only time will tell.

__Internet Safety is when__ a website doesn't contain viruses that allow other users to find your IP adress and track it to where you live. So its safe when this has none, but thats what internet security is for right? Without internet security your internet security is at risk because you are vulnerable to hackers.

__Some of the dangers of going online are__ you could recieve all these spam messages which could be a virus in disguise, you'll never know until you find out later when the virus starts to become active in your system and infect your files preventing you from opening them. You can do things like set up margins for yourself on what websites you visit.
