Today a lot of people are dependent of internet in their everyday life. But according to a new report written by Olle Findahl at World Internet Institute, there’s still 1.3 million Swedes at the age over 50 years that aren’t internet users. Findahl means that’s because the technique today is expensive and complicated and many of these people aren’t interested in using internet.
From now on I think that the rate of internet users over 50 years will increase. More people will need it and the knowledge about the subject will increase. The cost of the technique will decrease which makes it more available for a bigger part of the Swedish people. In 60 years I think that every Swede has a computer, Ipad or phone with internet available in it. Even the oldest person will play online poker and read the news online. This creates a lot of opportunities but also problems. When you are old and have problems getting outside you can keep in touch with your friends live at skype. One big problem when you get older is dementia which makes you dizzy and your memory gets damaged. What if you in your confusion order a lot of stuff you can’t pay for without even knowing you did it? Internet is bounded by a lot of codes for your bank, mail and so on. If you forget these codes you can get problems with paying your bills and so on. But still the development of internet using is undenyable.
