there in no denying that cyber freedom is limitless. but technology has speak for itself wherein it provides convenience to each and everyone of us. a single click of it will show up your needed information. the online activist can always post anything they want against an idea, an issue, or what ever may you have...
so what do you think.. how can of technology promotes tolerance then if the premise is that it provides convenience...

We live in a world of opposite, good and bad, black and white, light and darkness etc.Technology is good when it benefits mankind and bad if it falls in the hands of wrongdoers. The microphone that leads humans to prayer is also misused when it falls in the hands of the rabble-rouser whose aim is to create trouble and mischief. The internet which is a tremendous source of knowledge and a great tool for education is also being used by cyber-criminals to execute various crimes, frauds etc.The rocket which can take a man into outer space is also being used to wage wars and now threatens the life of our fragile world with enough destructive power to destroy the earth a million times over. So you see, it is not technology that is at fault but how it is used , that is the main criterion.
