Save The Internet

     Did you know that 83.5% of the images available on the Internet were
pornographic (Kershaw)? Did you know that pornography on the Internet is readily
available to curious little children who happen to bump into them?
     Today, the Internet which has only become popular several years ago, is
unequivocally one of the most revolutionary innovations in the computer world.
The information superhighway has changed peoples' lives dramatically and have
created many new exciting opportunities as well as markets to be exploited. But,
