Knives are dangerous things too, but you wouldn't want a surgeon to remove your appendix using a spoon would you?
Something like the internet, is only as evil/dangerous as the mind of the person using it.

It is a tool, and when used as such it is very useful.....use it for something else and it can be dangerous.

As to addictions. Some people have addictive personalities.......sort out one addiction and they become addicted to something else. Once t hey know or realise that they have t his type of personality then they can exercise some kind of control over their lives.
