In The Shallows, the internet is bashed on for not allowing us to concentrate and being a curse. However, it has it's benefits. We are able to connect worldwide with different people and spread news and knowledge. It can be used for good, but we have not yet learned on how to use it responsibly. It takes self-control to know how long we should be on it.
Also, we lose our focus. We used to be able to read at length, but now we can only read for a short amount of time. We like quick answers in a small amount of time. Are we becoming impatient for information?
