Persuasive thesis statement on Internet Filtering:
Even though we must protect our students
from inappropriate information, schools should
not filter Internet access. The nefarious people get
through the filters anyway, and we need to teach
our students to find appropriate information…

How Web page owners are charged
Free personal sites

• 1000mb of accessed
info

• If you had a popular
2mb site and 500
people visited it in a
month, no one else
could access it that
month
Too much traffic…
Business sites
• $30 per month
• 250mb of server space
• 200,000mb of accessed info
• Pay money for any extra
information access
• Noodletools: was paying
$250 extra per month to

their popular, free-to-use
site
