The internet, for me, is a tool.
Neither good nor bad on itself.
Depending on how it is used it can be very helpful. How much easier is it to contact people who are living hundreds or even thousands of miles away nowadays with email and even skype available. You can communicate with people from all over the world. Without the internet, there would be no spiritual forums either.
On the other hand, it can become an addiction and thus keep people from going outside and meeting others they COULD meet face-to-face.
"Our social network was outside." I like this saying. I still remember the time when there were no mobile phones or internet.
It is like with any other tool: the internet should be handled with care.
