Internet: Do you think it is an "Essential"

[Deleted member 25872]

I think the Internet is an essential because if your a student, you will most likely use it for research purposes or if you are at work you will use it for your job. You may also use it for communication with freinds and family. You may do online shopping, search for jobs, much more. What is your opinion on this, do you think itmis an essential to every-day living? 🙂

I do consider it sort of a necessity now a days. A lot of things depend on it. There was life before the internet, and there still is since a lot of people/villages/towns/and even countries that don't have it, so I know it's possible, but it would definitely be different.

It depends on your lifestyle. Some people live without filtered water; however, we consider that a basic life need now in most countries. For me it is. I couldn't do my job without the Internet.

The years and the days that are moving forward, It is essential, what ever we do in the world are based online, even paying bills. Banks are looking at more online then in store

Internet is an important part of life today. This is because every other thing has been made convenient around you by the click of a mouse or just by tapping on the mobile application. So I think internet is a necessity of life today.

I didn't have the internet until I was in my 20's and I survived just fine. I was able to research things at the library using books and whatnot when I was a student. Even now I mainly communicate with my family with a telephone and I don't really shop online that much, I'd rather go to the store and have the item right now, than sit around waiting for a package to come in the mail. Plus people around here tend to open or steal packages left unattended on people's doorsteps.

I don't believe the internet is essential in your life but it sure does make things more convenient and it gives you something to do when you have nothing to do.

I use the internet for work, for school, and to watch TV. It's not essential to live, but my life would be very different without the internet.

I do not agree with how far the internet is coming, however I do believe that the base internet should be essential for human contact. The things we are able to achieve because of the internet is astounding.

I think it's a necessity. I need it for school and also for gaming with my friends that aren't close to me.

No, you don't need the internet. Use books to learn from, go to the library, phones to chat to people, pen and paper to write letters instead of emails. Go to shops and shop locally instead of shopping online.

I use the internet mostly for Facebook and gaming. I have cut down massively on time sat in front of a computer. I have lived quite happily without the internet and could again.

I could live without it sooooo no. 😛

I think the internet is used too much now. Like, you don't actually go out and talk to people that much anymore, you text, FaceTime, video call, talk on FB, etc.

I think you can live without the internet. Humans managed to live without the internet 300 years ago so surely they can now. Although it will be so inefficient without the internet.
