This technology is being made more and more advanced and user-friendly with every passing day. However, some bad impacts also come in the package with good inventions. From the beginning until today, its users miss-utilized it often.

Disadvantages of Internet
The loss in Cultural and Social Relations:
The man is a social animal. It is important for both mental and physical health that we must interact and communicate with other human beings in real terms. The misuse of the internet has led the young generation to be a victim of loss in cultural and social relations. In olden days, people used to stay together and united in order to communicate with each other; but now all these activities have been lost. Among these, social interaction has been affected the most. Though the internet is providing a contact but its effects are either less promising or weak because real relations can’t be built on the basis of virtual chats and communications only. Most of them usually come out fake which may lead to sadness or depression.
The Interest in Reading Books is Almost Finished:
There is a famous quote saying “a person who reads book live thousands of lives and a person who do not read books lives only once”.
The Internet has almost finished the concept of book reading, People try to gain all sorts of knowledge through the internet; because of this, the interest in reading of books has considerably lost. Book reading must be encouraged in the young generation. Though the internet is also providing online reading facility but with so much other offerings we doubt that one will go for reading and will be successful in focusing on reading only
Illegal and Inappropriate Actions:
The Internet provides you with connectivity on a huge platform. Some people misuse it and perform illegal and inappropriate actions through the use of the technology. Large groups of terrorism and corrupts perform their despicable procedures through the internet.
Criminals and hackers also use the medium for their evil doings. Cyber-crimes are so much common now that almost every country has its own specific cyber-crime control department to deal with cyber-crimes.
Weaken the Eye Muscles:
A major disadvantage of the internet about which usually mothers are more concerned for their children is using the internet for a long period and sticking to computer screens for hours as it causes the eye muscles to become weak. We usually use laptop or computer from a distance less than 2 meters whereas we must use devices exhibiting rays from not less than 6 m so using them for a long period cause eye muscles to become tired and weaken causing a loss of eyesight.
The Radiance of Gathering have Diminished:
The virtual meetings have replaced the actual gatherings. We find two people sitting nearby lost in their own virtual lives. It is a real disadvantage of the internet that it is connecting the people living far away but separating the ones living in one house.
The radiance of gathering, carnivals and stalls have also diminished due to the internet. The significance among people of meeting each other is disappearing; all these activities are now limited to e-mails and chatting over the internet.
Evil-Doers Spread Uncertainties:
The Internet is a medium of quick information which may be misused by many.
Some evil-doers spread uncertainties on the internet through religious controversies. Apart from this, the internet provides the opportunity to analyze further any political speeches and personal controversies; due to this, the society falls victim to chaotic situations and disorganization. It also provides medium to hate speeches and rebels.
