The bottom line is that it is very hard to know what to do about internet. It will be just like the phone soon, where you need it for just about anything. For example, my bank stopped giving check images with monthly statements, and they must be accessed online, or so I was told.
However, the terrible immorality becomes a big nisayon. It used to be that the Jewish home was a sanctuary where one could get a rest from the yetzer hara, and not be barraged with temptations. Now the street has entered the home. Just saw a Rashi in Berachos, Oy li miyitzri oy li miyotzri. Rashi says the yetzer hara is miyago bhirhurim, doesn’t let him rest, even if he successfully fights it off.
