Multiplatform media can allow access to a wider range of views, including extreme ones. Should the internet be more regulated? You should refer to other media products to support your answer. Point 1: People have a right to their own opinion, and should be able to express it. Point 2: Chat rooms Point 3: Disregard of the BBFC guidelines. PROS They can express their opinions CONS It’s been banned for a reason; something triggered the BBFC’s guidelines to ban it – it could be disturbing to people, or cause something to happen. PROS Could meet someone – studies show that 1 in 5 relationships start online. match.com PROS You get to watch the film you want to watch. CONS Their views can be extreme and offend others CONS Possibility for child grooming, and sexual assaults (Skout – 3 teenagers assaulted) [Ensure you include current affairs/media examples!] CONCLUSION There are ridiculous amounts of reasons to say that the internet SHOULD be more regulated, but when Wikipedia spoke out against ACTA and SOPA; two different internet regulations proposed, the outcry from the public was massive; with people calling up their state congressmen to say how they were against it. The majority of the public were clearly against this, as the two regulations have been dropped from congress.
