Global communication on the Internet has a lot of benefits. For example, anyone can use

the Internet to find information from all over the world. People can take online classes,
so they can learn even if they can’t go to school. And email is an inexpensive way for us
to keep in touch with friends and family who are far away from us. But global
communication on the Internet can also cause problems.
If you have an email address, you probably get spam. Spam is email from people you
don’t know. These people try to sell you things. Many people waste a lot of time deleting
spam from their email inboxes. But spam is not just a waste of time. People can use spam
to get your personal information. This is called “Phishing”. If “phishers” get your
personal information, they can use your credit cards, take money from your bank
account, and get new credit cards with your name on them. Also, sometimes emails
contain viruses. Viruses can damage your computer and make it very slow. Viruses can
also destroy all of your data, such as music, documents, and pictures. So global
communication can make your life easier, but you have to be careful.
