Who Regulates the Internet?

Who Regulates the Internet?

There is no one who regulates the Internet. Internet is like a Wikipedia which we can post up information, upload pictures and also can be edited. But Internet Service Providers (ISP) has been given a responsibility to monitor and regulate the content that has been published to the Internet. Besides that, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will track the ISP whether they are doing their works in order to make sure the content is not too over.


Regarding the Prince Harry's naked issue, there should be a censorship because Prince Harry is one of the Royal Family. But what 'The Sun' newspaper trying to say behind the naked pictures that has been printed is the ISP and FCC need to give more attention on the Internet Regulation. My opinion, they need to censor all the unnecessary things on the Internet especially the naked, porno n etc. Its not good for children and teenagers below 18 years old. They really didn't understand what it is about. So, don't spoil their brain with a dirty things. Parents also should keep on eye of what their children doing on the Internet. Don't let them online without your concern.

Besides that, if the ISP and FCC still want to put the negative things on the Internet, please make sure that the website or page is really in secure where a password is needed to continue browse that website.

  1. Password input is a good idea to censor contents. I believe a lot of websites do that. However, how would they gain any audience if they don't at least post a sample content, right? This is why they do not implement such strategy.

  2. I agree with Farah, parents should concern about their children when it comes to internet because they are still young to understand everything. So parents must keep watching on what are they surfing on the internet.

  4. I don't think so that the website use password to continue surfing on it right diana? Maybe at first they can open it to public..but when after they feel they have enough visitors, they can use password to make their website insecure.
