Cybercrime has grown exponentially on the internet and now seriously threatens people, companies, and even entire nations. Financial losses and security breaches are frequently caused by malware, phishing scams, identity theft, and hacking. These attacks not only compromise people's financial security and right to privacy, but they also have the power to shake the world economy and reveal highly confidential data. Sexual Predators are the ones who talk to the person in a sexual way. Sexual predators are looking for sex. Pornography is sexual activity depicted in written, graphic, or any other form whether on the internet, in CDs or in movies that have no aesthetic. There are so many bad effects of pornography people can feel addiction, negative feelings about themselves, increased crime, etc.  All of that is damaging reputations as a people. Their privacy is leaked on some issues such as cybercrime, sexual predators, and pornography. Even though their private information should only be theirs, it can be shown in public. In addition, the Internet is a danger because of the people who use it in a bad way. It depends on us or people how we use it, whether it’s good or bad.

          To conclude, there is no doubt that the internet has improved the world, it is important to recognize and confront the risks it poses. Cybercrime, sexual predators, pornography and damaging reputations are just some of the dangers present in this huge digital environment. When James Veitch said “The Internet gave us access to everything; but it also gave everything to access us”  It is like invading our privacy. That’s why the internet is a danger.

          Old media is discovered from Pre-Industrial Age up to Electronic Age. In old media there is a Pre-Industrial Age (before 1700s) where the use and sharing of information began. Their equipment or format to share or broadcast information are Traditional paper and Writing materials, Cave paintings, Stone tablets. After that in the Industrial Age (1700s- 1930), their equipment were Printing presses or Books, Newspapers and Magazines. Last in the Old media is the Electronic Age (1930s-1980s), their equipment are Computers, Radio, Personal computers and also Printing presses or Books. Traditional media are broadcast based, meaning that the messages are sent in one direction or in a one-way communication. However, the media is transforming. New media doesn’t necessarily refer to a specific mode of communication. Some types, such as an online newspaper, are also “old media” in the form of a traditional printed newspaper. Others are entirely new, such as a podcast or smartphone app. It becomes even more complicated to define when you consider that as technology continues to advance, the definition continually changes. New media is any media — from newspaper articles and blogs to music and podcasts — that are delivered digitally. From a website or email to mobile phones and streaming apps, any internet-related form of communication falls under its umbrella.
