Andriy Slynchuk has described eleven things Internet users do that may be illegal. Review what the author says and write a paragraph describing the five most serious violations and why you think those offenses are serious.

               The article highlights several everyday illegal activities on the internet, but five of the most serious violations, in my opinion, are: Using Unofficial Streaming Services: Streaming copyrighted content illegally violates copyright laws and potentially exposes users to cybersecurity risks, such as personal data theft. The gravity of this infraction lies in its direct impact on content providers and the entertainment sector, as well as its potential to compromise consumers’ privacy. Using Torrent Services. Torrenting copyrighted material without proper authorization significantly infringes intellectual property rights. Depriving producers of their rightful earnings and subsequent piracy contributions have significant economic ramifications. Sharing Passwords, Addresses, or Photos of Others. Posting someone’s private information or images without their consent is a breach of privacy and can lead to harassment or harm. The gravity of this transgression is significant since it can result in profound emotional and legal consequences for the individuals whose personal information is disclosed. Bullying and Trolling: Cyberbullying and trolling not only harm individuals psychologically but can escalate to criminal offenses. These behaviors have the potential to result in tangible repercussions, such as the development of mental health disorders and, in certain instances, legal ramifications, rendering them significantly grave transgressions. Illegal Searches on the Internet. Engaging in unlawful searches, such as those related to child pornography or bomb-making, not only raises ethical concerns but can also result in legal consequences. The actions above are subject to surveillance by authorities, and engaging in those activities may result in criminal penalties.
