10. E-Mail spamming

The fact that an e-mail is classified as spam is on the following two basic criteria. A) It is unwanted. B) This is the deciding factor. 

These emails are sent in large quantities to numerous recipients. A major negative effect of electronic spam is that it uses up a lot of network bandwidth. 

Moreover, it may include malware in the form of scripts or other executable attachments. 

On viewing such e-mails or downloading the attachments, you might unknowingly invite viruses to enter into your system and harm it.

9-  Pornography, videos related to violent crimes, terrorism, documentaries on serial killers, etc. etc. If you are surfing the net, you are most likely to stumble across negative information. 

The fact that it is so easy to find ways of committing suicide is just astonishing

8– Internet is also a haven for pranksters. 

Recently, flipkart which is the largest e-commerce company in India, decided to stop delivering consignments which value greater than ten thousand rupees to consumers in Uttar Pradesh as there have been cases where people order expensive products on a Cash on Delivery basis and then refuse to accept the order. In such cases, the company and the sellers associated with company suffer huge losses. 

7– You need to use the web urgently because you need to complete a task and the internet is irrefutable the fastest way to find what you are looking for. You connect your laptop to the web all the while thinking about your task and what you need to do. As soon as the home page opens on your computer screen, an advertisement of an online shopping site pops up. You are tempted to visit the site but you stop for a moment, thinking about the task at hand but then you visit the site anyway. After all, just looking at the site won’t do any harm. 

6– .you forgot to logout while leaving the internet café. Your fault.

 I walk in next to login to my facebook and your account pops up. Yes, I am bad. I hacked it. Exposing the weakness of a system is bad. Downloading your favourite movie just because it’s available for free is a crime.

5–The advertiser asks for your bank account details and you being naïve, give him all the details hoping for an advance payment. The dangers of looking for such offers online is the possibility of them being fake and even worse, posted by cyber felons

4-  Another misuse of the internet is cyber bullying. People make fake profiles on social networking sites and email ids so that they can anonymously threaten a person. Victims of cyber bullying face psychological issues that interfere with their daily routine and work. 

In most of the cases victims are plagued with lower self-esteem and increased suicidal tendencies. In 2011, the NCPC (National Crime Prevention Council) reported that almost half of the teens in the United States of America are affected by the perils of cyber bullying. 

3– It’s their piece of creation and they deserve to be rewarded for it. Stating more emotionally, you just can’t snatch away someone’s bread and butter! One credible analysis by the Institute for Policy Innovation concluded that, every year, global music piracy causes $12.5 billion in economic losses, 71,060 U.S. job losses and a loss of $2.7 billion in workers’ income.

2– Yes! Internet steals your ID. First, our information is more easily accessible to the criminals through the malware softwares we all fall victims of. 

You have an account on orkut/facebook/twitter/Google+/ any other social website? If yes, can you guarantee that you are well acquainted with all people in your friend list and that none of them has a fake account? NO! You Can’t. 

1.Quite undoubtedly, porn is the one of the most popular misuse of internet. The internet has made it extremely easy for people to have access to pornography. When minors are exposed to pornography, it always has a negative effect.
