                 benefits, but it has some drawbacks as well. Following are the disadvantages of the Internet:

                       People are so involved with making friends and playing games on the Internet that
                     they have stopped giving time to their family and friends so much so that there is no
                     direct connection with family and friends.

                       We have started to depend on the information present on the Internet that we have
                     lost the creative part of us. Instead of relying upon books, we prefer searching for

                     information on the Internet that cannot be hundred percent accurate.
