a. As there are advantages and disadvantages of
every invention, sphere, and revolution, speeding
of information also has two sides. When something
happens or is discovered or invented in one corner
of
our planet, the whole world learns about it
immediately. But there is a notion of information
attack. It can be understood in two ways; the first
interpretation is “attack to information” and the
second is “attack somebody or something with
the help of information”. Both of them are more
dangerous showing
catastrophic consequences
than any type of attack with weapons or tanks.
b. Attack to information is penetrating into ones
PC and monitoring, snooping, spying, stealing

information and so on.
The worst site is that is
easy to hack (steal) your information virtually and
even you do not know when, how and who hacked
and usually you cannot mind the event or object to.
But Spying is sometimes legal, because you click
on “I accept” in the licence agreements written in
small prints even not reading.
c. Information threat in business purposes also
exists; it can be understood as attack to intellectual
property. What is an intellectual property? Simply,
we can say that it is someone else’s intellectual
working
results such as musical, literary, and
artistic works; discoveries and inventions; and
words, phrases, symbols (trademarks), and designs.
But owners usually suffer from not being able to
prove that idea was originally created by them.
File swapping with your friend is also against law.
d. Attack with the help of information is making
someone or group of people accept someone’s
ideas, set of beliefs or ideological views; especially
it is made with pressure in different ways. Those
ways
may be encouraging, persuading or even
financially supporting.
