In Search Of

I never knew that the internet tailored what I search depending on my previous history. Honestly, I didn't even know that the internet kept a history of everything I searched even after I thought I deleted it. This fact is very unsettling and even a little creepy. I learned that I need to research and know how to use the internet in a safe and smart way. I also realized that I need to start using more reliable search engines because even Google has created a secret profile of me and alters my results. In conclusion, after hearing what Dr. Preston revealed about the internet that most of us don't know, I believe it is very important for children and students to learn how to correctly use the internet. They need to learn how to properly and accurately search for information and stay safe while doing so.
