Promoted | Ah, the internet – what a wonderful creation
that not so long ago, our angry relatives were asking, “Who needs it?”, and trying to ban it on account of the dangers of strangers online . It’s changed everything – some would say for the better.
And don’t even get me started on social media. Without Facebook, how would we ever know what our ex-boyfriends are up to now? Or how would we keep up with the latest drama between celebrities we’ve never even met? It’s a good thing we don’t have to worry about things like human interaction or supporting local businesses.Sounds pretty mundane when you put it like that, right?
So, the next time you’re scrolling through your social media feeds or ordering takeout from your favourite restaurant, take a moment to appreciate the wonders of the internet. Without it, we’d be lost in a world of face-to-face communication and physical shopping.
