 NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF IT

Whilst IT serves you with lots of information and social media that would likely be impossible without IT, IT is also a massive threat to your health, personal data and security.

Malwares (Viruses, worms and Trojan horses) are usually designed to infect your Operating system and a lot of times lead to you wiping your HDD and reinstalling. A virus is usually embedded in a file, worm pretends to be a program, and a Trojan Horse asks you to run the program that it pretends to be, and then it normally infects the PC in the worst way.

IT can affect your health negatively because with computers screens and TV screens is all made of light, and you are staring straight into the light from no more than a metre, and you are not meant to stare into light, so in the long run, if you are spending too much time playing those video games or talking to your cyber friends, it can really damage your eyes.
