But because of the evolution of internet and its widespread growth, we are seeing many disadvantages of using computer.

1. Harmful for teenagers
The computer is changing the mind of teenagers and college going students because of their own personal computers having internet facility. They try to browse all those porn or those forbidden sites. They have learned hacking the trusted passwords of companies and destroying all their useful information thus committing the crime. Students learn all that is apart from their studies and that is the use of weapons and other armaments and information on making dangerous bombs or alcohol and drugs. Another disadvantages of computers for teenagers are the violent computer games that they are so busy in it; and stop doing their homework, watching news and forgotten the current affairs of their country. They have become lazy enough to just sit on the internet or play games. These games have made them even shoot their hated colleagues. Even children have become obese and do no exercise to stay fit and fine. Parents should be extra attentive to know what their children are doing.

2. Harmful for companies and banks
Other disadvantages include frauds on internet banking by the various hackers who break the code and password and making the balance zero. Even online shopping is becoming perilous just because of the so called internet and the skilled hackers who have not left even hacking the credit cards or ATM cards.
Thus all the companies are losing their confidential information and word of mouth with their customers and hence for them internet is not a boon as it was previously. In terms of security, the customers are losing trust be it various credit card companies or banks providing internet facilities.

Thus we see that if computers have the advantages then disadvantages are also not far behind. So nowadays a law is made to arrest all those who commit the crime to browse the porn or prohibited sites or hacking the useful information of people.
