The article distributed in class, "A World Wide Web of Change" was a very interesting to read in that it discusses the issue of censorship and the Internet. It is hard to decide what is too far when arguing this point.
The article points out that the web has changed nearly every aspect of our lives. It also points out that "the web is not powered by fairy dust and wishes." This explains that the web is ran by real people creating different website every single day! Anyone can create a website, just as I created my blog! It is very important for us to consider our sources and have information literacy.
