Computers have been around for over half a century and there is more and more that we can achieve with them. We can accomplish many tasks that can be helpful in today’s society thanks to modern day computers. As there are helpful ways computer can be used there unfortunately are also bad ways they can be used. Most people in today’s world take computers for granted as they are regularly used in our everyday life. During the COVID 19 pandemic computers were used in the help to stop the spread of the Corona virus by using applications such as Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, and many other platforms that helped people social distance each other and still be able to communicate during the deadly pandemic. With the rise of online banking, computers are very useful in organization and security of important documents such as banking statements and titles by the use of passwords and other security measures to help secure them. Another way computers can be used to make the world a safe place is there use in the security industry. Many businesses, schools, and residential homes use security cameras which feeds back to a computer, which can be used to apprehend thieves, and criminals for example. The feed from theses cameras can warn and give people the heads up they need, with the good there is always the bad that follows. Computers have been known to be used to assist hackers and other criminals. Scam artist use computers in snatching over eight billion U.S. dollars a year from unexpected elderly and the unaware. The dark web is being used in dealing illegal substances, human trafficking, as well as even hitman for hire. These activities are horrible for peoples safe keeping. Most computers in modern times come with a camera built into them. With this come as people know as “peeping toms” whom hack into your computers web cam and spy on their victims. There is always going to be a good and bad to how our computers can be safe and less safe for people.
