Question: what is your favourite invention?

The internet! We have the ability to access any information we want very easily and quickly thanks to the internet, which is really important. We have a lot more freedom and independence now because we can find out about things ourselves online. It also means we have a place where people can question the reliability (how true something is) of the information provided to us. Before, when newspapers or politicians told us things, we had not at a lot of choice other than to believe it. Whereas now, especially thanks to social media, we can hear the opinions of millions of people which sometimes leads to us debunking fake news. It’s always great to get information from multiple sources, as some sources aren’t that good at being honest!
Also, Netflix is pretty great.
