The Internet is the life of the universe today. A day without the net
is a lifeless stretch to passing hours. And this makes it a clear fact
of how easy it is to spread anything in the virtual world.

blindly followed by the youth.

unavoidable tasks that were horrific. The hacker caught his pray via
