Introduction
The world today developed very quickly, many different
devices updated every year. But in the
wake of those new developments, some troublemakers found their way to do some
illegal things. For example, they create
a computer virus to destroy the entire network in a particular area; they
posted some pornography in the Internet to cause some youth criminal; they use
their technology to steal other person’s privacy. We cannot allow those kinds of things to
spread, so more and more technical methods created to prevent the internet
crime. The internet pornography has
ruined many teenagers; it should be controlled and corrected. I think we should control pornography over
the internet, and the technical methods would be the most powerful ways to
prevent it.
Benefit
Richardson,
Resnick, Hansen, Derry, and Rideout (2002) states that “Many computers have
software designed to block access to Internet pornography. Because
pornography-blocking software cannot perfectly discriminate between
pornographic and nonpornographic Web sites, such products may block access to
health information sites, particularly those related to sexuality.” So the internet blocking must be required for
every computer that is available for children.
In this technology era, it seems like everyone or every household has
computer and other mechanical devices.
It is easily to connect to the internet and see some pornographic
information. If the internet did not
have some block for the pornography, children can easily click into the web
site and see them. It is not good for
children’s healthy growing. Putting a
block in the internet can decrease parents’ concerning for their children. And there has come more and more different
method to control pornography over the internet. Telenor and KRIPOS, the
Norwegian National Criminal Investigation Service (2004) has noticed that “The
filter, which is one of the first of its kind, will prevent access to web sites
containing sexual abuse of children.”
This will help the children to search some health information that does
not contain any pornography. And it also
can make parents feel relax when they do not with their children. People can enjoy the convenient of internet
and the benefit of internet block.
Legal Perspective
In legal perspective,
the person who posted the pornography in the internet that destroyed others computers
are an illegal action. And also
children can easily be influenced by these things. Thomas Holt, assistant professor of criminal
justice has noticed that “Lack of self-control was also a major predictor” (“Youth
cybercrime” 2011). Most children are
curious about everything, if they see the internet pornography, they will
curious about it and then do something that is illegal. Eke, Seto, and Williams (2011) has states
that “We examined police occurrence and
criminal records data for a sample of 201 registered male child pornography
offenders originally reported by Seto and Eke (Sex Abus J Res Treat 17:201-210,
2005), extending the average follow-up time for this sample to 5.9 years.” We can see that the children criminal rate
has increased. Child is a country’s
future, if most children have been ruined, and who will build the country
become more powerful? Some hackers
connect virus to pornography, if you click into pornography, your computer will
die. It makes many people have a
headache when it happens to them. The
government has chosen some ways to punish those illegal actions, but there
still have some more that we cannot find.
Someone who is doing illegal things should be given some punishments, so
there would be less people follow them.
Ethical Perspective
In ethical perspective, I think we should do more to
control pornography over the internet.
In ethic, people can have different point of view for what they want to
do and how they will do. But I think
most people may have the same opinion on controlling pornography over the
internet because it is not a good thing for their children, and it can affect
their children’s whole life. Albert,
Lang, Yates, and S (2011) has said that “The rate of growth of the Internet
shows no signs of abatement; on the contrary, new technological advances are
emerging so quickly that legislator and regulatory bodies find themselves in a
constant fire-fighting exercise in dealing with ethical issues of major public
interest.” New technology developed very
quickly, so there would be more technological methods to control pornography
over the internet. In ethical aspects,
the person, who created the pornography in the internet that did not have block
for children, does not have common sense in human. It is easily to think about that children are
not available to see pornographic imagines, but they still did that to children
and caused many children criminals. They
should to think about more and stop doing harmful things to children. It is extended to ethical issues, not only
personal problem.
Social Perspective
In social perspective, I think sometimes the pornography
can influence a group of people. For
example, some workers may give up their work and wallow in watching
pornographic imagines. Some students may
enjoy in pornography and ignore their school work. These caused the whole social world to go
down and may cause some problems. James,
Rebovich, Lurigio, Karin, and Stowell (2012) has stated that “In the four
California cases, we do not know what triggered the decision to commit suicide;
however, the cases did raise questions about the impact of aggressively pursuing
child pornography and other forms of Internet sex crime.” From this we can see although we do not know
what causes the suicide; we can still say that it should be connected to
pornography. It led to a negative
influence between the social lives. It
may affect the steady atmosphere in human’s lives and make people feel dread in
the environment that they live. The
pornography can cause many different bad results; it should be controlled in
some ways that can limit people to see it.
Security Perspective
In security perspective, it is not safe to let child to
use internet alone. The newspaper
concluded that “Timothy Whitaker,
age 45, of Baltimore, Maryland, pleaded guilty today to receiving and
distributing child pornography over the internet, and possessing over 8,500
images of child pornography and over 630 videos of suspected child pornography”
(“Baltimore man” 2011). We can learn
from the fact that one person can create much pornography over the internet, so
there would be thousands of those kinds of things in internet. It makes the internet not safety for children. The Justice Department's May 2006 reported
that “A computer-savvy user can access these (child pornography) groups by
using techniques that hide his/her identity by concealing his/her true IP
address” (“Opinion” 2011). This makes us
more difficult to find a way to prevent pornography over the internet. Right now, we promote to get on the internet
safety, so the security of the internet is required. But it needs everyone to work together and
make it safety. So strongly control
pornography over the internet can make the internet more security for everyone.
Conclusion
The world is developed
very quickly, many different kinds of technology spread widely over the
world. Following the quickly spread of
the technology, it would be come out a new development that can totally control
the pornography over the internet. If it
happens, the children would have a security way to search or play on the
internet. And also, parents do not need
to worry about their children would be influenced by internet pornography. Controlling pornography over the internet is
an imperative thing that we need to do in recently year. It has received some success, but we still
need to work on it. If we can figure it
out and solve the entire problems over the internet pornography, it will
decrease the suicide rate and child criminal.
Our world may become more and more safety and healthy.
