Miley Cyrus is wise beyond her years. During a recent interview where she promotes her new movie The Last Song, which co-stars boyfriend Liam Hemsworth, Miley went into detail about how harmful the internet can be and I completely agree with her!!!!!!!!!!
A little online entertainment is fine, but with iPhone apps for virtually everything and social networking sites, it honestly makes me sad to see people living their lives online. I say, if you're addicted to the internet, at least go on vacation as often as possible, leave your cell phone at home, get on the computer for a handful of minutes/day - on some days - and have yourself some real, unplugged fun!

Before Miley hated the internet, she was a bit of an online attention whore.
On how her life has changed now that she's deleted her Twitter account: “I’m a lot less on my phone, I’m a little bit more social. I have a lot more real friends as opposed to friends who are on the internet who I’m talking to — which is like not cool, not safe, not fun and most likely not real. I think everything is just better when you’re not so wrapped up in [the internet]. I just think it’s kind of lame.”
On experiencing life as you should: “I feel like I hang out with my friends and they’re so busy taking pictures of what they’re doing and putting them on Facebook that they’re not really enjoying what they’re doing... you’re not having fun, you’re too busy clicking away. So I think just enjoy the moment you’re in, and stop telling people about it. Just enjoy it.”
On how harmful the internet is: “I’m telling kids, don’t go on the internet, it’s dangerous, it’s not fun, it wastes your life, and you should be outside playing sports or something.”
This young woman is AMAZING! PREACH IT! Remember the days when you spent hours playing outside everyday instead of playing video games, texting, MySpace or Facebook-ing, emailing or Tweeting?
I barely post any updates on Facebook and have yet to post pics from my January vacation. I believe my friends should know what I'm doing in real life, outside of online updates. And fake online friends shouldn't be entitled to knowing what I'm up to because it's really none of their business to begin with since the friendship only exists on the surface. I also refuse to be friends on Facebook with some of my closest friends because I think it would ruin the friendship. Like, we'd be updating each other via the internet instead of talking on the phone and seeing each other as frequently as we do now. That's how disinterested I am in virtual friendships and wasting time online. TEAM MILEY!
