Internet Pornography Addiction, by Liliana

The term pornography is very common, and one of its synonyms is obscenity. Internet pornography is increasing every day. Many families and people in general around the world now have access to the Internet; they can visit pornographic websites. It is most common for men to visit pornographic websites, but some women visit them also. Sometimes they are working on the Internet and popups with pornographic content appear on their computer, and they start to look out of curiosity. The computer should be placed in a visible place in the living room, where everyone can see what the person is doing because usually people who look for pornography may try to be in a lonely or hidden place.

Three possible solutions for pornography addiction on the Internet are to have an Internet blocking service, to place the computer in a public place, and to encourage the creation of laws about Internet pornography.
The first solution, stopping the pornography from entering the home, office, and schools, can be done by equipping the computer with an Internet filter. Netmop, iPrism, and WebBalanced Office are some examples of programs that can protect children and adults, including you. With this or other programs, people can have control of what their family, students, and workers see when they visit the web. Also, those programs clean up email, chat, news, or, whatever it finds pornographic material in.

Another solution for protecting the family is putting the computer in a visible place where the family always walks, like the living room, kitchen, or dining room. Family members must not have a computer in the bedroom, especially where people sleep alone, and they must not be able to lock the room. Many victims of pornography addiction begin viewing it when they are as young as 12 years old. Parents have to monitor what web pages family members visit. Also, they have to learn how they can check the history on their computers. In addition, schools, offices, and companies may have a special department for monitoring their computers and checking what people are looking at.

The best solution for addiction pornography is to support the creation of laws that would prohibit Internet pornography. Current laws protect only children, and make child pornography. Children are protected under the Children's Internet Protection Act. However, laws regarding creating a pornography business with adults depend on each country. The government of each country has to make specific laws and rules about pornography. For example, they must (restring?) the pornography free in the websites. Also, they need to prohibit pornographic spam and punish those who make that.

In conclusion, Internet pornography addiction is a serious problem in the world. Looking at pornography can have problems with their family and job. Parents and family must attend to what kinds of web pages their children visit. They should put a filter against pornography on their computer and check the history of their personal computer after a member of the family finishes using it. Also, the companies, offices, and school may monitor what their students and workers do at their computers. If people leave to visit pornography websites, they will take out those websites. Finally, the government of each country should create laws about Internet pornography.
