The internet shows that nothing can be hidden. It means that the people who hurt others can’t hide and will be called to justice; it means that the people who quietly help others, will be rewarded.

Before the internet, it was often one person’s word against another person’s word. With the internet, words are in text. Moreover, that text is stored.

Today’s media reporting on accusations of incriminating evidence that occurred in the past, interestingly is backed by substantial evidence from the internet. Websites collect data that can be retrieved and used for or against claims.

“In the meantime, when so many thousands of the people had gathered together that they were trampling one another, he began to say to his disciples first, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops.” Luke 12:-1-3
