Abusing Internet
Though we don't have wider access to internet like other developed nations but it is alarming that a large portion of internet users of our country are addicted to various unproductive internet based activities. Excessive use of Facebook, a so called social network, is one of them. The major victim of this curse is our young generation who don't have enough control over their activities. They are really vulnerable to the bad effects of this social network. According to socio-psychologists, the bad effects of Facebook are-loss of concentration, lack of sleep, fatigue, loss of appetite, withdrawal syndromes, behavioural personality disorder etc. Every technology has its own blessings and curse depending on how we use it for our betterment. The more frustrating news is that it is spreading even across the rural areas where people use mobile internet.
If not used properly, Facebook is not less harmful than pornography as it creates obsession, psycho-somatic illness and other sorts of mental inconsistency as reported by the developed countries' specialists in the respective fields. Moreover, it is also reported that various criminal networks are carrying on their activities through this site.
