Privacy and Responsibility on the Internet

I am a student in Japan.

I study about safety and security on the Internet.

I have been using a computer since junior high school. I learned about how to type and use Word and Excel, but little privacy.

Question 1.
Do you think most people in Japan are aware of the dangers on the Internet?
No. Many Japanese use mixi. Actually, I also use it. I can see other people's privacies on it, for example their real name, sex, photo, age, hometown and so on. They open their privacy as easy. Also, these days, a boy died with a man who made the suicide website in Japan. If he would not have access the site, he might have not died. So, many Japanese people are not aware of the dangers on the Internet.

The Internet has a lot of sites, and there are very pleasant. But we don't aware or forget the danger of the Internet. We protect and care by ourself, then we enjoy use it.

I agree with you. If you show your privacy, you had better change your profile.

Yes, we are indifferent about the danger of the Internet. It is very dangerous.
