Now, the spread of the internet is changing the world dramatically. One example is the use of websites and SNS for both advertising and political commentary. Indeed, not only political parties but individuals can voice their opinions easily on the internet. I think this is very important for the progress of world peace. The internet is also useful for handicapped people. They can do everything—studying, shopping, communicating with friends, and so on— at home, even if they have physical disabilities. For these reasons, I agree with the opinion that the internet has had a positive influence on our society.

We say "devote (noun or noun phrase) to (noun or noun phrase).
