  CONTROVERSIAL ISSUES. Controversial issues, are topics on which different groups have built irreconcilable arguments. Therefore, they divide society.    WHAT IS A CONTROVERSY?  A controversy is the discussion of opposing views between two or more people.

Currently more than 4,000 million people worldwide have access to the internet and a large part of them obtain it through Wi-Fi. Also, this is perhaps the most useful tool for those who work in an office. Some of the main benefits of this technology are: *Easy to use Accessing a Wi-Fi network is easier than you imagine. Just by entering the username and password you will have the possibility to surf the internet with any mobile device. Best of all, after you connect for the first time, your network data will be stored on whatever electronic device you're using. One of the advantages of Wi-Fi are: * Being wireless networks, the convenience they offer is far superior to wired networks because anyone who has access to the network can connect from different points within a sufficiently wide ran
