Research Proposal
I decided to do my research project on unmonitored use of the internet. I plan to discuss some of the negative effects of the internet. Some topics I will include are as follows: the way terrorists use the internet, how it is too easy for children to look at inappropriate material, and basically how the internet should be better regulated. I will explore some articles on the internet that will help me expand on my argument, as well as an essay in a book. My thesis statement: Some people may say that the Internet should not be monitored because it would cause a breach of privacy, but in all actuality, there are numerous negative effects of unmonitored use of the Internet. Although this may seem like a very broad topic, I will narrow it down as I go along. I will talk about how the things that make the internet so great are also the things that make it not so great. I thought this subject would be interesting because we hear some stuff about the negative ways the internet is used, but not a lot. We hear more about the good ways the internet is used. I thought it would be fascinating to learn more about this subject and develop my paper around these ideas.

Wouldn't internet monitoring go against our rights in the constitution, such as restricting people from going to certain internet sights? I mean I think that some internet monitoring is ok, but regulating what sights people go to is a little excessive for me. I think it should be up to the parents to put child block on their own personal computers and not that of the government.
