In my opinionthere is nothing bad in surfing the Internet. First of all, the Internet is a huge source of informationFor example, if a person has some questions, now he or she usually starts looking for answers on the Internet.  Secondly, a person can know about all the latest events that happened in their country or the world. For instance, while searching for information, a person automatically will see a lot of headlines with the latest local, country or world events.
