  Keep Internet Safe!!

Submitted By:   ahmedkotby

Date Created:  2008-11-06
Description:   With the phenomenal expansion in use of ICT tools, as embodied in the steady growth rates of computer penetration and internet access, and the take-up of mobile phones especially among the young, ICTs are effectively changing society and empowering children and youth with new means for self assertion and achievement. It is, therefore, imperative that online safety issues are reviewed carefully to secure the well being of young users. Incidents of overuse and misuse have started to show up in a number of societies. In recognition of such risks, we should all work to stop internet safety breaches. It is a fact of today’s online environment that young people may be involuntarily exposed to various online dangers. Such materials are either repulsive or damaging. The proliferation of Internet sites depicting violence, brutality and crime desensitizes youth to their horrors. This necessitates immediate action to raise awareness among youth about the potential dangers associated with the use of the Internet.
