The Internet is one of the latest technologies witnessed in the last decade of the twentieth century. It works to broadcast and receive information for all types of knowledge from and to all parts of the world. It is a practical encyclopedia that provides its services to all those exhausted in all fields, such as scientific research, business in all its aspects, and government in its various forms and shapes. The Internet is a double-edged sword, like other means of communication. It has advantages and disadvantages for subscribers’ minds, mainly because of what is provided by some malicious parties that transmit false information, insult religion and values, penetrate identity, and intellectually invade minds.
