There are more communications gadgets that are out on the market to date that has the ability to access the internet. From mobile phones, ultra-compact laptops, PDA’s, Laptops and desktops, all of them have allowed unprecedented access to the internet like never before. Imagine stuck in traffic on the bus while you browse and chat with friends, why not call them on VoIP which is steadily gaining ground. All the access technology and all the improvements to the internet but still, the same old problem SECURITY. Identity theft, online fraud, phishing, vishing and many more problems that have to do with security of information personal, corporate or whatever relevance are gaining notoriety and some people are beginning to realize that it was kind of nicer when there was no instant access to the internet, no mobile phones and PDA’s just plain old silence.
Privacy is one of the things we have lost since we all went online and more and more people are beginning to see technology as an invasive presence. most now crave some distance form the frequent calls or email and just want some time away from all the technology to appreciate things we used to love and get bored with. Peace of mind is also out the window for wherever you may be, somebody can get in touch with you, anytime they wish to. It is now a luxury to have time off the net and to just sit down and do plain nothing. I mean, the internet is good (thanks to it, we cannot survive without it in today’s world) but peace and distance away from it would be a nice thing from time to time. Just peace and quiet looking at the stars and the moon at night………..Nahhhhh!!!
