Q.5.1) Living in the 21st
century, technology seems to be one of the things that keeps advancing, and it
has come to a point, where it has become a big part of people’s lives.
One of the major changes in
the digital world, is the ability to connect and communicate with each other
from anywhere at any time. Therefore,
one cannot argue the significance of quick and easy communication, as well as
more knowledge gained about the go abouts of everyday life on social
media. Technology has become of so much
importance in our everyday life, as it is being used for purposes such as, when
something needs to be fixed, instead of paying someone to do it, people google
for ways on how to fix that specific thing.
Another purpose is that, when conflicts arise or when there are just
certain complications, be it in one’s personal life, social life, business
environment etc, solutions to these situations is also being googled.
The restricting of digital
rights, therefore has a negative impact on citizens in countries where digital
rights are not extended to the majority of its citizens. The negative impacts being, depriving these
citizens from a social life outside their country’s boarders, as well as people
not knowing what’s going on in the world.
This sets a huge limit on people’s lives, physically, mentally and
economically.
Everyone should have the right
to be exposed to digital rights, as this world and everything that happens in
it, has effects on the people living in it.
