I have been using the Net for the past 12 years and have enjoyed every bit of it. The Net for me is a vast ocean that I am free to swim and surf. Yet, the ocean has sharks and become prey to them. These are called Virus, Hackers, Identity Thieves and Stalkers. The Net also traps youngsters into malicious groups that cause more harm then benefit. So the question is...do we continue to swim across this vast ocean unhindered without lifeguards? Or do we need to create our own self censored private pools that connect to one another and form an Ocean of Networks? What do you think?

They are supposedly working on a new internet system that should solve most of the problems that we face today. It's been awhile since I read about it, however the idea is to make each computer easily identifiable with it's own ISP, instead of the systems we have today. This will help a lot in the area of security and will help eliminate a lot of the scams and such that are so prevalent now. At least that is what they are claiming, only time will tell if and when this happens.

Looters and criminals are in everywhere in this world. I learnt that law maker establishing some rules of punishment, and trying make the internet save place of cyber crimes. If we desire to swim in an ocean,then it is important for us to learn that how should we save from the sharks of the ocean. There are less chances for learned swimers to be hunted and there are much chances for those who are careless are new in this field. You has 12 years experience as you told. You can take care. Wish you good luck
