We now live in a world where the internet is all around us. Password protected, or not it is being used and unfiltered. Everyone seems to be glued to their electronic devices, keeping them from any interaction with the real world. More commonly, young children, and teenagers are more attached to their devices than anyone. Since the Internet has been around, it has shown itself to be a very powerful engine in forms of education. However, not everyone that has access to the web puts out the correct information, and clutter it with misinformation that we may not want reaching our homes.
