impact of digital technology/networks
environmental issues
disadvantages
servers are required for the storage which also costs money and room/materials which can impact the environment just as much as physical storage as well as the power needed to run the server could also be created using unnatural and harmful reactions/methods.
advantages
there is no physical storage needed as it is all on the internet therefore no materials will be used on things such as books, shelves and even huge buildings made purely to hold information such as a warehouse or a document storage unit.
the relation of the impact it has to the natural world e.g. pollution.
legal issues

disadvantages
with better technology there is better hacking equipment such as a metasploit framework which allows the hacker to find exploits within a system this is bad as this then requires people to create a prevention to this but while the prevention is being created there is also a counter that can be created to bypass the protection service
