- That the internet be used for good purposes. For example, globalization. This is good because it allows people to learn things anywhere in the world.
- Controlled multitasking. That people can concentrate doing various things at once. This will help them do many tasks and work efficiently.
- I agree with the movie that humans aren't capable to focus on several things at once.
- Internet that can be accessible to anyone and everyone like internet cafes in Korea. This will allow them to connect with each other at all times.
- People relax their brain while reading a book. That is good because it is like a "time out" from other activities that have to do with internet.
- Programs that make children camp for 10 days without internet, so that they have a break from their addiction.
- Online classes like blogs, websites, and interactive activities. Technology that is used for education.
- Schools that promote a responsible use for technology. They will train the students to use technology fluently and responsibly, in order to do well in life.
- People of all ages that can interact with the internet. Bubbe uses her cooking show and now she says that it has added more years to her life.
- Massively multiplayer online games that make people interact with each other in a world that is imaginary.
- Guilds that are created by people who don't know each other but consider themselves close friends.
- People that were married and that they met in online games.
- Games that make people interact and that make people behave better because they feel physically close to the other characters.
- Using programs such as Second life that will allow the people in the same company to express themselves better and also be able to play anywhere in the world.
- People can work anywhere in the world, without necessarily meeting each other. Also, they don't have to go to the office to work.
- Military using technology to treat retired soldiers with trauma. They also train themselves for real life situations, such as flying a plane or raiding a house.
- Also, remotely controlling planes in the Iraq war from Las Vegas without really being there.
Disagree
- That people are obsessed with the internet.
- That they have to be looking at a screen all the time.
- In universities, the students are distracted all the time by the web. They are not paying attention to the lectures because they are checking Facebook, games, email, YouTube and other pages.
- Young people spend more than 50 hours a week in internet.
- PC bombs in South Korea that get out of hand. People that die in these internet cafes are addicted to screen looking.
- Internet overuse that affects people's grades and that kids stay up all night playing video games.
- That adults can monitor the children's screen without them knowing it. It is clearly an invasion of their privacy.
- Students that don't read books due to multitasking and obsession with screens. Now professors cannot make students read a novel that is more than 200 pages long.
- Multitasking that is not productive. For example, when people write a paragraph and then check Facebook they will finish their homework in two hours, when they could spend only 10 minutes.
- People that spend a lot of time playing World of Warcraft and that have to quit their jobs and break up their relationships just because they spend a lot of time in the game.
- People that don't let children and teenagers use technology, just because they think they can't handle it.
