The effects of the social media
That they are booked to professionals or opened to all, the social networks and blogs take more and more place in our life. They are described as communications tools and of change. Of course, the social media offers advantages to those who join it, but also some inconveniences.
More and more people cannot do without them, they are tools of communication, rapprochement and sharing. Social media have quickly become a promotional tool for commercial enterprises and service providers. They are also drivers of change and mobilization. They are also useful for communicating abroad and keeping touch people living there. Secondly, it is also through social networks that media companies and media outlets keep their members informed of the latest developments. These same social networks make it possible to find lost relationships, former love partner, classmates, even distant relatives. They remain effective tools for getting news from relatives. Some have even learned about births and deaths, wedding that occurred in their surroundings. Numerous social networks like YouTube or Facebook, allow the broadcast of images that can change the world. The small videos of retaliation against Syrian and Yemeni protesters are great examples of their effectiveness, or others like Instagram or Snapchat that allow us to spread moments instantly and share them with our close friends.
Now, let’s turn to the negative points of these famous social networks, they can be sources of intimidation, revenge, they can have an impact on professional and private life, and cybercrime.
Malicious people use it use to harass innocent people young and old write offensive or hateful messages. For some people, these networks are sometimes used as a tool for revenge. For many employers, these networks are a real source of information for recruiting or firing employees. Informing your “friends” about certain aspects of your private life can cause problems. How many Facebook fans have been victims of burglary after announcing a trip?
Hackers have become masters in identity fraud via social networks. Some use it to access your personal information. Others enter your computer to steal passwords and important numbers: credit card… Finally, some people spend so much time on it in the same day that it affects their professional and personal lives. Finally, some people spend so much time on the same day that they interfere with their professional life (time theft/late delivery) and personal life (emotional relationships).
Social networks represent global culture because no matter where we are everyone can use these platforms and I think that they also bring people together at the other end of the world. I chose this type of media because for me it represents today's global culture well and has many advantages as well as many disadvantages.

ReplyDeleteI agree with your article. I find that to show the negative and positive points of social networks is a form of warning the many young people who use and who will use these networks.
ReplyDeleteThe beginning of your article is enriching to the fact that people using networks to communicate with people from all over the world, our loved ones who are far away for example.
For the negatives I fully agree with you on these points. I think that new generations do not see all the dangers of the internet world and especially that of social networks.
For the professionals it is also one of the ways for them to be known everywhere.
In today's world social networks are an integral part of our lives, most of them can not live without and without passing like smartphones.
