Dowloading for free
Downloading music, films without paying any money or to buying books less money must be illegal because there is no difference between stealing. Every writer and singer has rights which called literary property or copyright. This rights are protected by goverments. Singers are owners of songs and taking someone’s possession without permission is stealing. By downloding films, music and books from the internet, we escape from paying money, but maybe celebrity needs them. In history there are a lot of examples when very famouse writers died from famine. Why people shouldn’t take result of their work? Singer and writer are jobs as driver or any other one and salary is a budjet picked from selling disks and books. Opponents would say that downloadind MP3, films and to buying books less money must be legal because cds’ costs are too high. But they forget one thing, people can’t afford everything that they want. Do you steal something precious from shops because you can’t afford it? Cost problem is irrelevant to topic, those who thinks that costs are too high must argue with authors to decrease them. In conclusion, it is clearly that downloading for free should be considered illegal.

Do you think it is acceptable to close a website completely because of its content?
Considering personal opinion, experience and knowledge, freedom and democratic society it is unacceptable to close completely website because of its content. Every person has right to decide himself what to do, watch or listen. Everybody has right to have his own taste and opinion and everyone knows what benefits him. According to it closing websites because of its contents is infringement of personal interests and rights. Most countries all over the world emphasize that they are democratic and democracy means that everyone has right to make decisions himself. However, closing websites abridges freedom and restricts liberty. Opponents would urge that some websites contain bad videos and harmful things for kids’ mind. Firstly, every person is able to think and recognize himself what is bad for him and what is not. In addition, we can’t say definitely if website’s content is good or bad. For example, in some European countries www.tagged.com is forbidden by government because some people used it in unmoral ways. It is normal meeting site like a Facebook and a lot of people used it in properly way. What is about kids it is irrelevant to what I am discussing here. It is completely different problem whether parents should or not give permission their kids to use internet. I think that there are a lot of reasons to accept that prohibiting websites is unacceptable and abusive.
