Nowadays, it is thought by some people that sharing information
as much as possible is good when it comes to scientific reserch, business and
other academic world. Meanwhile, there are others who argue that it is
inapproporiate since the information is too important or valuable. Personally,
I agree with those who believe it should be shared to public.
One of the reasons why some people think sharing information
is better is that information can be used for some changes which the founders
did not come up with. It is obvious that academic researches show what the
researcher looked for. However, there might be some foundings which the researchers
did not notice because they were not important for the prime goal, but useful
to develop other field. In fact, many of the significant medicine, such as pennicilin,
was accidently found by other biomedical researches.
On the other hand, the information always has risks to be
misused. By sharing information, people are allowed to access the information they
want, even if they are not suitable for it. To illustrate, not only scientists
or someone who need it for work can find the instruction of making the
dynamite, but also potential terrorists can take advantage of it. Accordingly, information
ought to be protected from the likelihood of misuse.
In conclusion, although there are some people who believe it
can be dangerous to be accesible to potential criminals, I agree with others
because having the chance to improve the world by sharing information is much
better.
