Has the Internet or modern communication facilities brought people closer?写一个短文,谢谢400-500字
The beauty of the Internet as a communication medium is that it is probably the one place where people can find everything they want in the least adulterated form.Web sites,blogs and forums especially,are now considered more reliable and less biased news sources than more traditional sources.Why is this?Well,there’s the notion of “every bit being create equal” - everyone experiences the same Internet,no spin,no tailoring,no smoke screens and mirrors.Commercial interest may drive some of the Internet but,as a whole,the Internet is not owned by any group.The Internet,as we know it now,is a true public resource.
Imagine,just for a second,if the Internet was given under the control of private groups,large corporations,the small-interest-serving folks… Can you imagine if a company like Verizon not only control PSTN (traditional telephone) systems but also a major portion of the Internet?Sure,the government steps in and splits up control so that the monopolies are no longer powerful but,in the end,it’s a few suits calling the shots for millions of people.Privatization has all but killed the telecommunications industry,which is exactly why the Net has allowed things like VOIP and hybrid cellular-wireless technology to come to prominence.
Net Neutrality and the Internet go hand-in-hand.The fact that the Internet represents the collective neutral grounds of the world is exactly why it continues to grow rapidly,both in usage and system expansion.To me,this realization makes the matter that of common sense but,as we have discovered time and again,common sense is dead.As I stated in the beginning of my little informative rant here,I was greatly shocked and disappointed to see how many of my own close friends had the wrong information.
Don’t be gullible.The large corporations always dress up things to sound better than what they really are.It’s like the gym representative that tells you you can cancel your membership at any time should you ever not be satisfied.Have you ever spoken to anyone that tried to cancel?They make it near impossible for you to do so and,even after you cancel,they may send you bills.These businesses just want your hard earned money.
The number one myth I am hearing from those that are against Net Neutrality is that people will get better service if service providers are given the power to regulate bandwidth usage.Hogwash.Companies do this now and,even when they do not offer premium packages,they do administrative bandwidth regulation,capping connections and creating false limitations and bottlenecks.There’s nothing keeping service providers from adjusting their price models right now but,maybe,just maybe,they realize that they’ll lose customers to the competition if they get a little too greedy…
