Maybe someone should point these things out to anti-internet parent groups.

I can't tell you how many times I've seen "dangers of the internet" on the news and that special on ABC about catching online stalkers.

That's because there are so many people out there who don't have an ounce of common sense and end up getting in trouble. There wouldn't be dangers if people were careful about the things that they do online.

It may only be worthy of Weekly World News at the moment, but I can see that happening one of these days.

Real world.

Sure there's danger on the internet but.. well.. like others have said.. you have more control as to what is done online than what is done in the real world..

Real world. In the real world as Bangle said, you have no control.

In the online world, if something is harrasing you, you can click of with the press of a button, you can't do that in the real world.

In the real world, you don't have that much control over what happens to you if you're the regular average Joe. If a dude drives by and shoots you in the head, eh, tough. No control there.

You are in complete control online. Don't be stupid, and you'll be fine. Tell your address to random strangers and that's your own fault.

Control > No Control

So the real world is more dangerous.


*pokes* That's my opinion.

That's almost as bad as the guy that was strangled by a piano wire when he bent down to take his floppy disk out.

I wonder if it was the same guy...

It's probably easier for people to "pick pocket" you online because of hackers keylogging thingies and what not but other than that the real world is more dangerous.

Real world. You have choices as to what you do/don't reveal over the Internet, but you can't really control anything in the real world.
