Can you think of an example of a stereotypical image in media that has caused harm? What about an example where no harm  has  been  caused?    What’s the difference between these two examples? In my opinion, I think these images are one of the examples of stereotypical images in the media that has caused harm.

I believe that internet hold the power of globally, even smart phones or any smart tech will not work perfectly without internet, just as internet has become part of our lives.       I once saw a meme, stated: ‘without internet, just as I’m living in a desert island.’ Through this meme, I just laughed off and think seriously: it’s true that internet society has really made the greatest impact on our society.                                           (LOL, this is how everybody will feel like)              Internet society was formed by Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn in year 1992, they are the pioneers,
