In the peak of science and technology, internet is no longer a luxury but nonetheless a necessity for the city dwellers to be survived in. Especially these days, many are not able to live a day without internet. Ask around you, and the answer will be “Where can! Internet is my oxygen”. The Internet, as an integrating force, has combined the technology of communication and computing to provide instant connectivity and global information services to all of its users.
As we approach the new millennium, the internet keeps revolutionizing our society, and never stops evolving. Look, and you'll notice how much internet has influence our society especially the youth of today. In my case, my friend on the right is busy facebooking and downloading videos while I'm blogging. Not to mention the other dozen of students. However it is such a waste as internet was widely misused by those who does not value its significance.
This introduces censorship to the field of technology.

It is defined as the supervision and control of the information and ideas on the internet that are circulated among the people within a society. The purpose of censorship is to alter and suppressed parts thought to be objectionable or offensive. For example, materials that are considered immoral or obscene, heretical or blasphemous, seditious or treasonable, or injurious to the national security. Pornography, Negarakuku.. Ring the bell?
