Technology has become a part of today’s lifestyle, we use technology so much that it’s become our personal escape reality tool. The use of technology has created a dilemma in social media. Social media is used in many different ways such as searching the internet and keeping in contact with family members and friends.
The set back is that people can also use it in a negative way. Some negative ways of using social media are cyberbullying, general addiction, fake identities, and internet dating. It is a problem because it could lead to suicide, jealousy, and depression. One of the problems that face and people don’t even notice is fake news.
Fake news has altered the way we view people, countries and cultures. Similar to what Hitler did in Germany with the propaganda the same is happening in America.
Social media connects people and makes them want to be apart of something similar to the if you can’t beat them join them mentality.
Social media is full of opinions of people and trends are set by those with the most followers, people on social media sites tend to follow trends or ideas based off others opinions instead of their own. Facebook is one of the biggest social media websites where people feel obligated to fit in with others, and in this process, they forget their own morals and self- imagine.
Social media apps are where people upload pictures, videos and express their thoughts. Additionally they are for people to message family or old friends they have not seen in years. However, nowadays people have turned social apps into something parents do not want their kids to be on it.
On the contrary his also means there is a chance for a healthy lifestyle on social media, because there are many people in the world that use social media for good causes. For example, social media can promote business and raise money for those who are in need, you can hold charity for those in need or even have a food drive for homeless all over the internet there are likewise critical potential advantages web-based social networking can give.
It creates unity and encourages the help from friends. In addition, social media is where people celebrate by posting a picture of a newborn or birthday and even the good things about a loved one that has past. Many good people in the world use social media to help others. For example to stop cyberbullying and lift up the spirit of someone who is being bullied. Forums also play a huge role in helping strangers connect and find purpose within each other and see how they share the same interest and beliefs.
In conclusion, technology has become a big part of today’s lifestyle. Even though it has its ethical dilemmas, there are other reasons why technology is important. Technology is used in daily matters, like looking something up on the internet, checking your emails, checking the weather and using social media, although people don’t always do the right thing with technology we must give our attention to the good.
