Cyber space- love or leave it

Cyber space is the world created by the Internet. It has a tremendous influence on our lives.The life of Julian Assange of Wikileaks and the result of the recent president election in America are fine examples for the importance of Cyberspace.Esther Dyson presents a deep study of the cyberspace.

He says that cyber space is a vast , boundless virtual real estate.
There is a general notion that some regulations are necessary in this space.Esther Dyson is against the idea.Censorship in cyberspace  is not practical .It is because the entry to cyberspace  is optional and  it is easy to by pass them.Self rule is the best rule in cyberspace.The users of cyberspace must show responsibility and self control.

Cyberspace is an attractive territory as it consists of three important arenas-private email conversations,  sources of entertainment and information  and possibilities of real communities.All these are self regulated.THEY DON'T NEED ANY RULES FROM AN OUTSIDE AGENCY

Cyberspace has a unique quality.It gives importance to individual freedom and choice.You can love it or leave it.But you can not insist on any rules or regulations.

 There will be a formation of self contained communities in cyberspace which cater to the needs of the members  and do not interfere with others.The future of cyberspace will be marked with the evolution of new regulations on intellectual property,content and access control and free speech.

Finally Esther Dyson says that the society must grow up and respect the  freedom of the individual and the right to choose while using the cyberspace.However it is important  to focus on certain Do's and Don'ts while using the internet.

1.Do not reveal your email address to any one.

2. Do not waste your time in visiting unwanted sites.
3. .....
