information but is available on the internet. Thus, the internet fulfills the
demand of every individual. Various social networking services such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc are rendering their services only by means of the
internet. The bond of brotherhood and friendship is being built up among the
world people keeping them in a global village with these social services. The
present concept of globalization is completely void and nothing without
information technology. So, information technology and globalization are
independent of each other. But information technology is not free from
demerits. Social and anti-social movement, hijacking, fraudulence, and many
other crimes can take place for the misuse of information technology. So, all
the world people irrespective of color and creed should be aware of the
demerits of information technology.
