Local community The social impacts of IT on the local community has a good effect and a bad effect. The good effects are that people can keep in contact more and you can be more social by using: Facebook Skype Twitter These social sites lets you catch up on the latest news in sports, designers, politics, dramas and so on. These sites also let you contact people from different countries of the world, weather its by text or video calling. These social sites are available not just on the internet, but you can get them on your phone or other devices. Some business make more profit because there stores are set up online if people cant make it to the store on the streets they can order what they want from online which means it doesn't waste time and its more relaxing to look for the item you want. Police can also tract down a criminal of these social sites by reading the messages. The negative effect on the local community is that to much media and social use means that no body really meets in person anymore. There's also a big chance of bad impact on the local community e.g. fighting, cyber bullying, and discrimination to different topics such as politics. More people start to commit suicide and get threats from social sites such as Facebook, and because people start using online news more rather then going to the local news agent, the local news agent loose money because more people are using the sites. IT has a good and bad effect, some people use to much social and media that they don’t meet in person or talk in person, social company's like Facebook make money and it expands their business and other business loose money.

Inequality in broadband access Most people have internet connection through WI-FI, you have to have a router that is connected to the internet. Business such as sky, TalkTalk, BT make more money when people sign up to there company the company to keep their internet running. The companies such as sky and TalkTalk make more money and more company's are developed. In some places people cant access the internet because they cant afford it its because there area has no internet connection , this means no computers no WI-FI- would work and it would be harder to contact someone. More robots are made this is an advantage because people who work get paid to make the robots and the robots don’t need to get paid a salary so its saving money for the company. Some places have no internet connection in certain areas of the U.k but up in Scotland there's more land which means there's not that much connection to the internet. Humans get paid robots don’t get paid the money which means saves the company money and they can use it on something that will benefit there company
