The internet, as it stands today, serves as a medium for our entertainment, communication, and commercial needs. It is something many of us have come to take for granted. The original intended purpose of the first “internet,” however, goes back to the days of the Cold War where the ever looming threat of a nuclear missile attack prompted the U.S., as well as many other countries, to build a robust, fault-tolerant, and widely distributed computer network. By 1970, ARPANET had

The reading I will be analysing is The Humanisation of Media by Robert G Picard. Robert G Picard is a leading academic expert on media businesses and media policy. Robert is known for being the father of media economics studies. The issues he talking about overcoming the limits of mass communication. Another interesting issue he is talking about is the how technology of social media changes the way we communicate.

In today’s world Internet has become one of the most important mediums of communication. It has become the lifeline of our survival. It has removed the entire social, economic and physical barrier and has immense effect on our day to day activity.

A literature review about new terms and theories that were developed by scholars to describe shifts that were caused by the rise of Internet and which are relevant in order to understand the present topic will be discussed.

When using the telephone, watching television and through print, information has traveled around the world. The Internet has been used for business to have access to the newest information. However, having new product developments and technological advance can help improve business 's products and compete with other companies. Since the Internet has become popular, the way small businesses exchange information has changed drastically. Now, because of the Internet, businesses can now email; do online videoconference; document exchange and also collaborate with developers and vendors all over the world inexpensively.

The biggest change of our time all began less than a generation ago when the world met the internet. The internet revolutionized world-wide capabilities in communication, and changed the way that people, firms, and even governments communicate. Furthermore, it has created a change in society, by connecting people anywhere on the globe and giving them access to information. It has also fueled industries, making significant changes in industries all over the world, and allowing new industries to emerge into the digital age. People and the internet have grown together, resulting in a world like the one we live in today, but it was not always this way.

Information and technology have been significantly developing over the past few decades. New services and machines are built to support the needs of people. People can now store their information and data in their digital devices such as cellphones or laptop, or online databases. Although this development makes people’ life more convenient, it raises a controversial issue about privacy protection. Many people have agreed that the producers of those digital devices should protect the privacy information stored on their customers’ devices. However, recently, there has been a case in which the FBI requested Apple Inc. to build software that allows them to break through the security of the IPhone so that the FBI can look for information about terrorists from the phone they collected. Apple refused because this will make the security of all its products, not only the IPhone, weakened. Hence, this could cause a huge privacy risk for all of its customers. A question raised up here asking whether Apple’s action was morally right, because it wants to protect people’ privacy, or not, since it didn’t help the government and put people in a security risk. The cyberethic issue here is the privacy protection and whether it is more important to sacrifice privacy for security like in the above situation or not.

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the infrastructure to support electronic mail.
