The Dark Side of the Internet

It is still a common belief, that modern electronics and the Internet make our daily life more comfortable and safer. Online banking, email, social networks and endless search opportunities on the Internet eliminate paper checks, letters and faxes and offer us huge amounts of knowledge and connections. But that's only one part of our modern life.
